Twisted Intestines In A Baby



The Nexus 7 is a multi-purpose knife (inspired by Mad Dog Vodoo and Mission MPK12), providing high performance.


Size and weight Overall length 30 cm.
Blade length 18 cm.
handle length 12 cm.
blade width 39 mm
thickness 7.2 mm in the non-grind, 6.8 mm in the grind.
Weight 380 gr.



Materials

-L '

steel material was chosen for blade steel ISODUR K360 (manufactured by Bohler) constructed using ESR (Electro recast sottoscoria) to improve the distribution of alloying and the fineness of grain.

Thanks to this unique and its composition (C 1.25% Mn 0.35% Cr 8.75% Mo 2.7% V 0.9% 1.18% Si + Al + Nb), the K360 provides a greater hold of the thread, good facilities di riaffilatura e una discreta resistenza all'ossidazione e corrosione (paragonabile a quella di un acciaio seminossiabile come l'aisi D2) nonchè una grande robustezza (tale acciaio inaffti ha una resilienza di 85J a 58 hrc. Quasi il doppio rispetto al già otimo A2 alla stssa durezza).

Contribuisce a tutto questo anche il trattamento termico a cui esso è stato sottoposto, ovvero triplo rinvenimento dopo la tempra per permettere la completa precipitzione dei carburi secondari e la trasformazione dell'austenite residua in martensite rinvenuta.

-L'impugnatura

Il manico è stato realizzato lavrando dal pieno un blocco di laminato di fibra di vetro nema Fr4, con ottime doti meccaniche, inattaccabile da acidi and insulation and solvents, compared to a G10 more resistant to heat and austoestinguente.

E 'was chosen to maintain the natural color of the material, without adding colranti of any kind, not to degrade both physical and mechanical properties.

geometry
During the development of the Nexus project was made 7 special attention to the geometry of the knife, the weight and balance.
The need for a multi-purpose knife that combines good handling and power has led to the development of a blade "leaf", whose width increases going from the heel to the 3 / 4 of the blade in order to have a corner chamfering congenial a broad type of work, from the lightest to heaviest.
The blade is tilted axis dell'impugntura to ensure greater cutting power and therefore more effective blows, and in order to facilitate the work of the tip.
It has also been a controfilo scraper to improve the penetration power and decrease the weight of the knife.
The design is chosen through a spigot to allow complete isolation of the user 's electricity (in the case of cutting electrical wires connected), decrease the total weight and center of gravity forward. The shank has been tempered to 50 HRC, fixed the handle with epoxy adhesive and screwed on the bottom with a bolt to make it more robust.
short, the Nexus 7 is designed to be a good knife can do a better and a lot of work to cope with the worst abuses.
