Small AK2 Drop Point M398
Description
Small AK2 Drop Point
Drop Point EDC knife made of M398
The AK2 is the new design from knifemaker Alex Kremer and the first knife to come entirely from our production.
Rugged design meets lightweight. The Drop Point blade is one of the long-standing classics of the knife industry - its unobtrusive appearance, robust tip and excellent manageability make the blade shape particularly popular for EDC and everyday use. The AK2 Drop Point can also be carried as a neck knife or inconspicuously in the pocket, the skeletonized design reduces the weight to a minimum. The stonewash finish means that most usage marks will blend seamlessly into the surface texture, so even after intensive use, little signs of wear will catch the eye.
The delivery includes a matching Kydex sheath. Leather sheaths are available separately.
M398 is an upgraded version of the popular M390 steel from Böhler. In comparison it features a higher carbon and vanadium content, improving its edge retention at the cost of loosing a bit of toughness.
