Delica4 - HAP40 / Red G-10
This limited edition features a laminated HAP40/SUS410 blade and Red G-10 scales.
Its keen PlainEdge blade features three-layer laminate construction comprised of HAP40 and SUS410 steels. HAP40 is a high-speed tool steel produced by the powder metallurgy process—an advanced manufacturing method that reduces the alloy segregation in the steel and ensures an extremely fine, uniform carbide structure. Containing generous amounts of tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, and cobalt, HAP40 possesses exceptional toughness and high abrasion resistance—key qualities of a superior blade steel. To provide increased strength and corrosion resistance, the high-performance HAP40 core is flanked by layers of SUS410 martensitic stainless steel. This unique three-layer construction is evident when the full-flat-ground blades are examined closely, as the transition between the core and outer layers is visible just above the blade’s cutting edge.
Not to be outdone, the handle of this remarkable knife features full skeletonized stainless steel liners, a stainless steel backspacer, and the initial offering of a TiCN Coated HAP40/SUS410. The black hardware along with the black blade really make the Red G-10 stand out.
A remarkable expression of the Delica 4 design is sure to become a highly prized collector’s item.
