Kizer Dukes V3466N1 from the Vanguard series is a budget version of the everyday knife, designed by Matt Cucchiara, the creator of tactical and EDC knives, distinguished by high functionality and comfort of use. Kizer Vanguard Dukes is a lightweight knife that combines all the most important features of an everyday tool, i.e. functionality, good quality materials, affordable price and eye-catching design. The blade with a satin finish and a useful drop-point profile is made of high-alloy Bohler N690 stainless steel . This Austrian tool steel, hardened in the range of 58-60 HRC, has high corrosion resistance, is durable, maintains sharpness well, and is also easy to sharpen. The concave grind provides a compromise between cutting performance and cutting edge strength. The blade works on bearings , thanks to which its unfolding with a flipper is extremely smooth and dynamic. When unfolded, the blade is securely locked using the reliable liner-lock mechanism , a lock with a simple and very intuitive operation. The knife certainly stands out with G-10 plastic cladding with aggressive texturing, which provides a very comfortable and stable grip and prevents the handle from slipping out of the hand. Steel inserts (liners) are responsible for the stiffness and strength of the entire structure . Kizer Vanguard Dukes V3466N1 is a light, medium-sized folder that offers very good quality and excellent functionality for an affordable price.
