Sage™ 5 Titanium M390 Exclusive

This remarkable expression of the Sage 5 was specially manufactured for Smoky Mountain Knife Works (smkw.com) and is available only through their sales channels.

The first defining feature of this elite knife is its full-flat-ground blade, which is crafted from Böhler-Uddeholm M390 particle metallurgy stainless steel. This high-performance alloy offers very high wear and corrosion resistance yet remains extremely easy to sharpen and maintain. It also performs well with both coarse and highly polished edges. The blade of this knife takes full advantage of these properties and features a handsome satin finish for low-friction cutting performance.

Equally unique, this Sage 5’s handle showcases solid titanium scales. Meticulously machined and stonewashed to highlight their natural finish, their inner surfaces are relieved to house nested, skeletonized stainless steel liners that form the heart of the knife's high-strength Compression Lock® mechanism. The scales also include machined recesses to mount a deep-pocket wire clip that provides a choice of left- or right-side tip-up carry.
