The new Espina blade is a
Sangin Knives original, designed as an everyday carry, pocket-sized,
fixed blade. The unique Ivory colorway for this Limited Edition release
has been developed in partnership with the outdoor lifestyle brand
TacHuntFish.
We initially set out to create a fixed
blade that was not only classy in style but served as a utility tool,
just like your favorite pocket knife. The final result is the Espina, a
gentlemen’s style executive blade, slim enough and light enough
to be worn in your favorite suit, while lethal enough to outperform all
other MagnaCut® fixed blades on the market.
The Espina includes a buck brown leather
sleeve that sits slim inside of your pocket. This reduces pocket print,
while remains comfortable enough to almost forget it’s there. The handle
slightly protrudes from the top of the leather sleeve to leave enough
grip to draw the knife, while allowing it to remain discreet.
Upon closer inspection, you’ll notice the
finer details of the filed brass liners that leave a small jimping
pattern along the profiles of the handle. This is paired with a press
fit Ivory G10 scales, with a smooth sanded finish. In the rear of the
knife, we have added a small lanyard hole protected by a 0.1875" flared
brass tube, ideal for a thin lanyard and bead of your choice. The
Espina’s full tang body is finished in a black, polished oxide, while
its smooth, flat ground bevel features a natural hand polish and stone
wash.
Additionally, a seamless transition from
the stone washing pattern on the bevel to the flats provides a matte
effect over the entirety of the blade. This contrasting color makes the
blade a truly one-of-a-kind design. The bevel edge is taken down to
under .01" prior to its final sharpening, allowing for an extremely thin
razor edge for slicing.
Finally, this blade is constructed out of
CPM MagnaCut® steel, the finest material available on the market today.
For years, the knife industry has been fighting between a balance of
toughness and corrosion resistance, as well as best in class edge
retention, all of which MagnaCut® provides. Traditionally, the tougher
the blade, the more carbon is present, leaving the blade susceptible to
rust, however, that is no longer an issue with MagnaCut®.
Sangin Knives is proud to produce premium,
USA Made blades, and we will stop at nothing to continue researching,
developing, and implementing the highest quality materials and process
for our products.
The Ivory Espina is an exclusive product
developed with TacHuntFish, and each individual knife is serialized to
commemorate this iconic partnership.
