The Nucleus™ is a mechanical marvel that showcases the innovative genius of designer Princeton Wong, blending futuristic aesthetics with elite "super steel" performance. This premium frame lock folder is a study in complexity and contrast, featuring a multi-layered handle construction and a high-utility blade profile. Designed for the enthusiast who demands a knife that looks like a piece of aerospace technology and performs like a high-end tactical tool, the Nucleus is a standout centerpiece for any modern everyday carry collection.
The 3.23" reverse tanto blade is crafted from CPM MagnaCut, the revolutionary American steel that has set a new industry standard for toughness, edge retention, and total corrosion immunity. The blade features a rugged blackwashed finish that hides wear and reduces glare, while the aggressive reverse tanto tip provides exceptional piercing strength. Deployment is lightning-fast and glass-smooth thanks to the flipper tab and the integrated IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system.
