The Military™ 2 Orange G-10 CTS® XHP Black Blade PlainEdge Exclusive was specially manufactured for Cutlery Shoppe (CutleryShoppe.com) and is only offered through their sales channels.  

The first defining feature of this knife is its full-flat-ground blade, which is precision machined from Carpenter® Technology Corporation's premium CTS XHP blade steel. CTS XHP is an air-hardening, high-carbon, high-chromium alloy that can be described as either a high-hardness 440C stainless steel or a corrosion-resistant D2 tool steel. As a blade material, it offers superior edge retention and surface finish, can be sharpened to a very fine edge, and is extremely resistant to corrosion. To make the blade of this knife even more distinctive, it features a black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating.

In Cutlery Shoppe's signature style, this knife also features high-visibility orange G-10 scales with a non-slip peel-ply texture. All other features of this knife are faithfully consistent with the Military 2 platform, including nested stainless steel liners, lightweight, open-backed construction, a high-strength Compression Lock® mechanism, a four-position pocket clip, and a generously sized lanyard hole. To complement the blade's DLC finish, the liners, clip, and all other handle hardware also sport durable black coatings.

This Exclusive expression of the Military 2 is truly unique and destined to become a highly prized collector's item.
