White camel bone handles with brass rivets Brass bolsters front and rear Brass frame to protect blade Camel Bone is stronger yet more flexable than the more common beef, pork, or sheep bones. This bone is toasted to enhance its beauty and picked to provide groves for a better grip. Brass is a lusterous yellow metal looks great on he bolsters and rivets but also protects the blade from striking the frame. While some knives boast of a brass lining,this knife has a full brass frame About the steel: 440 has been called "the industry standard" and "The ideal compromise" between ease of sharpening and the ability to hold to hold an edge. 440 is hard enough to hold an edge but soft enough to sharpen easily with a common whetstone. 440C is a similar steel with a higher carbon content which enables it to hold an edge even better. Unfortunately, the other knife companies like Buck®, Case®, and Gerber® have chosen to switch to the lower carbon steel 420HC. The HC stands for High Carbon but it is lower than 440. The reason for their switch is that 420HC costs less than 440. This knife can be hard to sharpen with an Aluminum Oxide or ceramic stone but holds its edge much longer. A diamond stone is recommended OR use our Handi Sharpener. The Tungsten Carbide blades easily sharpen this steel and center your edge, eliminating the main reason people complain about being unable to sharpen a knife. ® The trademarks are the property of the respective companies.
