The Kershaw Epistle 2131 is a lightweight folding knife with a minimalist style that will be perfect as a classic edc knife, as well as a stylish gadget for a suit. Proven steel The narrow blade, 72 mm long, is made of the popular 8Cr13MoV steel hardened to 57-59 HRC . This Chinese steel has good corrosion resistance and hardenability comparable to AUS6. The 8Cr13MoV steel blade is perfect for everyday use , due to corrosion resistance, good sharpness and easy sharpening, for which a pocket whetstone is enough. Efficient cutting The knife has a slim blade with a usable drop-point profile, finished with the sandblasting method , which well masks minor scratches and abrasions caused during use. There are transverse frills on the spine that allow for a stable support of the thumb. Good cutting properties and excellent penetration of the knife are due to the use of an aggressive point, flat grinding and a cutting edge with a gentle curvature. The shank plate on which the blade operates has a decorative check pattern that gives the knife a custom style .
