The Rockstead CHI-ZDP folding knife boasts a 3.25" blade made from VG10 clad ZDP-189 steel with a mirror finish and dual thumb studs. Its opening action is incredibly smooth, with a liner lock that ensures secure blade retention. The mirror finish is achieved through a precise, hand-grinding process, working through grits of 400, 600, 800, 1,200, and 2,000 wet-dry sandpaper. This meticulous process is time-intensive, as any scratches require returning to a previous step for refinishing. Once the process is complete, the blade is buffed for a final, flawless finish. Rockstead’s expertise shines in this process, delivering an unparalleled edge and polish.
The aluminum handle incorporates stingray inlays for enhanced grip and feels solid and comfortable in hand. It features a tip-up, deep pocket carry clip and comes with a wooden box and a certificate of authenticity, with each knife individually numbered. With proper care, Rockstead knives are known to hold a sharp edge for 2-3 years.
