Open, the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost measures 7.8\" overall with a 4.6\" handle, and it weighs 5.78 oz (164 g).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat steel is used in the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost uses Elmax, a powder metallurgy stainless steel from Bohler-Uddeholm with high chromium and vanadium content. Elmax gives the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance with better toughness than most high-wear stainless steels, which is why it is a favorite on premium folders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Elmax a good knife steel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — Elmax is one of the better all-round premium knife steels. It sits close to M390 in corrosion resistance and edge holding while being easier to sharpen and a bit tougher, so the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost holds a working edge through weeks of EDC cutting and touches up easily on ceramic or diamond stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat handle material does the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost features a Ti-Dark bead blasted titanium handle. Titanium is light, strong, and corrosion-proof, and the Ti-Dark bead blasted finish on the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost hides wear while giving the handle a dry, secure grip. A titanium pocket clip and titanium backspacer complete the build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat lock type does the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost uses a titanium frame lock. A frame lock uses the titanium handle frame itself as the lock bar, so there are fewer parts and a very strong lockup; push the bar outward to release the blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho designed the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost was designed by Steven Kempa (VULPEX) for Reate Knives as part of the VK series. Reate manufactures the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost to the designer's pattern with its own titanium hardware, Elmax blade, and hand-tuned action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Reate a good knife brand, and where are Reate knives made?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReate Knives is a premium production knife brand founded in 2012 by David Deng and based in Guangdong, China, where the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost is manufactured. Reate is known for tight tolerances, smooth action, and collaborations with designers like Steven Kempa, and its knives are a benchmark for value in the premium titanium folder market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere can I buy the Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Reate VK-FROK Ti-Dark Frost is available at Going Gear, an authorized Reate dealer.
