![]() ![]() Washington knifemaker Webb Hammond creates flint knapped knives that are true museum quality. The Strider PVD SnG is a great heavy-duty mid-sized knife that is sure to become a daily carry! This unique process is used to apply the Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) which exists in seven different forms of amorphous carbon materials that display some of the typical properties of diamond. The coating method involves purely physical processes such as high temperature vacuum evaporation with subsequent condensation, or plasma sputter bombardment. On this limited version of the SnG, Strider utilized Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD), a process of creating a super-durable, highly corrosion-resistant finish by vacuum deposition. This extra work ensures that the Strider SnG is a folder that will hold up to hard use! It is not a separate piece but rather, machined out of the G10, so the spacer is not a separate piece like with other folders. Finally, the handle spacer is integral to the G10 scale. Handles are screwed together using oversized Torx screws for a very tight fit. The Strider SnG pivot screws are oversized for high strength and durability. The blade is made from premium S30V stainless steel which is proven to hold an edge for a very long time. The titanium pocket clip is mounted for tip-up carry. The handle incorporates pronounced finger grooves to help you index your grip, and it flares out towards the butt-end to provide a good grip without any backward hand sliding. This hybrid construction style lets you have the best of both worlds - the firm lockup of a framelock with the light weight and grip quality of a G10 handle. ![]() The three piece construction incorporates a titanium lock-side with a G10 single scale. If you are looking for a tough, compact folder, then the Strider SnG is the knife for you. Built for heavy use, at just over 4.5 oz., it is remarkably light to carry. The Strider SnG is a perfect mid-size folder with a 3-1/2 inch long blade and 8.2 inch total open size. Using only the finest materials and latest technology, Strider Knives continues to set the pace in cutting geometry, function and durability. Because of this, no expense is spared when designing and manufacturing their products. Around the globe, people stake their lives on Strider's edged tools.
