Custom Knife Factory MKAD Marun Folding Knife S90V Blade Titanium & Carbon Fiber

LION KNIVES IS THE ONLY AUTHORISED AUSTRALIAN CKF DEALER

 

Custom Knife Factory is taking steps to expand its market share with the introduction of a lower-priced sub-brand, called MKAD. The name MKAD comes from "Moscow Automobile Ring Road" (MKAD/МКАД), hence the brand's logo is ring-shaped. The MKAD series of knives share a lot in common with the CKF mid-tech production knives. They are designed by CKF and manufactured and by CKF factory using same typical high-end materials such as M390, titanium and carbon fiber. But with exclusion of exotic materials and high polished or hand finished parts, they have managed to keep the prices down. With introduction of more MKAD models, CKF is poised to beat big brand names such as Benchmade, Zero Tolerance & Spyderco at build quality, design and materials, meanwhile keeping the price very competitive. 

 

The Marun features a simple and classic design with titanium construction and marbled carbon fiber handle scales. The thick titanium liner lock design offers a uniform look on both sides while maintaining lock strength. This is commonly referred to as "bolster lock". The handle design is truly elegant, clean and very comfortable in hand.

 

The blade is made from S90V, a very tough, hard wearing steel that can hold an edge for a long time. CKF is known for their exceptional heat treatment that brings out the full potential of the S90V steel. The  simple and clean blade design has a great cutting edge to blade length ratio, making it a very capable and comfortable all-round cutter. In addition, the very thin blade stock with a sweeping belly makes this blade an outstanding slicer.

 

As usual with CKF knives, the MKAD Marun has a very pleasant action. The blade deployment is fast and closing action is drop shut smooth. The knife comes in a high quality zippered pouch with a full set of spare hardware. The inclusion of the hardware is very generous for this price point and something that is not offered by other brands.

 

 

Each knife is individually numbered and the serial number on the knife you will receive may be different to the knife in the listing photos.
