The Zero Tolerance 0117 has a 3.38-inch CPM MagnaCut blade in a stonewash and satin finish, a carbon fiber handle, a thumb stud and a pocket clip, closing to 4.5 inches on the DuraLock.
MagnaCut is a recent American powder steel that answers an old compromise. Most steels trade corrosion resistance against toughness. MagnaCut delivers both alongside strong edge retention, and it spread quickly through premium knives for that reason. The DuraLock is Zero Tolerance’s crossbar mechanism, released from either side so the knife works the same in either hand and closes without fingers crossing the blade path.
Carbon fiber is woven cloth set in resin and the lightest handle material in common use, stiffer than G10 at a fraction of the weight. The two-tone finish leaves the flat stonewashed and the grind satin, which shows the bevel line clearly. Explore more Folding Knives.
