What makes them special
• The Denim Micarta handles on
the knives are truly unique and the
material was introduced purely for
Tom’s range. The material is actually
made from denim that has been
compressed under extreme pressure
and makes for an eye-catching finish
that will wear beautifully with time.
Micarta is the term used for the
compression of layer upon layer of
fibre which is combined with resin
to produce a new material capable of
being reshaped and is hard wearing.
• Each knife boasts brass rivets
secured by hand which will
permanently secure the handle
to the tang. 1.4116 High Carbon
Stainless Steel is used for its
strength and toughness and has
excellent corrosion resistance and
high durability. The blade is heat
treated and tempered to guarantee
ideal Rockwell hardness.
