Manufacturers Description:
Due
to their light weight and convenience, ZytelŪ handled
lockbacks have gained enormous popularity over somewhat heavier,
traditional lockbacks with metal bolsters and wooden scale
handles. Our VoyagerŪ Series represents the definitive
generation of these ultra-light knives, a line of folders that
are sure to be the standard by which others are judged for years
to come!
The VoyagerŪ folders are, ounce for ounce, far stronger than
99% of our competitor’s folders. They feature precision milled
and hand fitted parts with extra stiff springs, providing a lock
that is super reliable, yet requires little maintenance and is
easy to keep clean. The blades are extremely wide and ground
thin at the edge for tremendous shearing potential. This thin
edge allows us to hone the blade to astounding sharpness. Plus,
the cutting surface is continuously curved along its entire
length for the most efficient possible slicing action. Because
of the high carbon content in the stainless steel, you’ll find
that the sharpness really lasts a surprisingly long time.
If you like serrations, you’ll really appreciate our exclusive
pattern. It offers the aggressive ripping action of serrated
teeth, but with a twist. Our design features groups of very
small teeth separated by wide, shallow arcs. This results in the
benefits of both a plain and a serrated edge, so that the knife
still cuts smoothly through almost any material. The
VoyagerŪ Series offers all the advantages of the latest in
lockback construction technology including lightning-quick
one-handed opening, light weight and strength. The result is an
appealing look with very modern styling. Every detail has been
designed for maximum performance from the reinforced pivot pin
and stainless steel pocket clip, to the grooved thumb shelf on
the back of the knife for extra traction. The ZytelŪ handles
are somewhat oval shaped in cross-section, increasing strength
and stiffness. Yet, the handle doesn’t feel or appear thicker
due to the subtly contoured design. ZytelŪ is unparalleled
as a handle material, as it doesn’t contract or expand in heat
or cold, and has an advantage over metal handled knives in that
it won’t become scratched or discolored with heavy use. 34XT
plain edge, 34XTH partially serrated, and 34XTS fully serrated).
