This folding knife is coming from US manufacturer Schrade
and it is made in China.
It's name is "SCH104LS".
It comes in grey/green carton box
the well known Schrade colors.
This is the folding knife.
It's a folder
that looks robust, powerful,
pretty good looking
and very cheap.
This folder was
no more than 20 bucks.
The blade is made of a good stainless steel,
9Cr18MoV.
The hardness of this steel
is up to 57 - 58 on HRC scale.
As you can see,
the blade is partially serrated.
This half is normal
and this half is serrated.
The blade coating
is black....
so, it's painted in black...
a kind of titanium, nickel, whatever...
The opening mechanism is "stud"
on both sides.
It makes it easy to open it with one single hand,
with right hand
and left one as well.
The locking mechanism
is frame lock as you can see.
A part of the frame
this one
locks the blade in open position.
The handle is an interesting one.
One side is made of stainless steel,
and the other side
is a frame made of stainless steel
covered with G-10.
It has a lanyard hole
and a pocket clip as well.
The pocket clip goes in one single position.
It's a very robust folding knife,
a very strong one.
It weighs 180 grams.
The overall length is 21 centimeters,
The blade is pretty long, it measures 9.2 centimeters.
It is 12.4 centimeters long when it's folded.
The blade is 3.4 millimeters thick.
It feels very well in the hand.
It is cheap,
it is made of a good steel,
and it's very robust.
Because of its serrated blade,
it's harder to check
how sharp it is
by cutting a piece of paper.
The serrated half of the blade
is very good to cut
ropes,
to cut a seat belt,
to cut a wire,
to cut rubber....
it's not appropriate to cut paper.
Whatever...it's hard to cut paper
It's folder from Schrade
which looks very robust.
It's made, of course, in China.
A knife is a tool, not a weapon!
