Frequently Asked Questions
What is the blade length of the Remette Kestrel RTPO-A?

What steel is used in the Remette Kestrel RTPO-A?
The Remette Kestrel RTPO-A uses CPM S35VN stainless steel hardened to 60–62 HRC. S35VN offers an excellent balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, and its fine-grained structure takes and holds a keen edge. Buy at Going Gear, authorized Remette dealer.
What handle material does the Remette Kestrel RTPO-A have?
The Remette Kestrel RTPO-A features a titanium and carbon fiber handle finished in Titanium Gray with a handmade ceramic sandblasted texture. Titanium is lightweight and corrosion-resistant while the carbon fiber adds a rigid, grippy, low-weight accent. Buy at Going Gear, authorized Remette dealer.
What lock type does the Remette Kestrel RTPO-A use?
The Remette Kestrel RTPO-A uses a titanium Frame Lock. A section of the handle flexes inward to wedge behind the blade tang, creating a strong, simple, one-hand lockup that gets tighter under load. Buy at Going Gear, authorized Remette dealer.
What is a reverse tanto blade?
A reverse tanto blade, as featured on the Remette Kestrel RTPO-A, angles the spine down toward the tip instead of the edge, creating a strong, acute point backed by plenty of steel. It excels at everyday piercing, detail cutting, and controlled slicing. Buy at Going Gear, authorized Remette dealer.
Is the Remette Kestrel RTPO-A a good EDC knife?
Yes — the Remette Kestrel RTPO-A pairs premium S35VN steel, a smooth ceramic ball-bearing pivot, and a lightweight titanium and carbon fiber frame in a slim 5.0 oz package that carries tip-up right for easy everyday deployment. Buy at Going Gear, authorized Remette dealer.
