Sharps Bros Meanstreak Folding Knife - 3.5"

Meanstreak is Sharps Bros’ first folding knife, keeping true to their credo with exceptional product design and craftsmanship. Meanstreak features a low-profile, sleek design, with a focus on everyday carry — bolstered by the very best materials that ensure years of trustworthy performance.

Their blade design is constructed of CPM MagnaCut, a unique powder metallurgy stainless tool steel that provides an unparalleled combination of toughness and wear resistance. CPM MagnaCut is possibly the finest knife steel ever made, with a combination of properties that boost overall toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance.

Meanstreak’s blade is deployed quickly and smoothly around a custom-designed pivot and a stainless steel caged bearing and race washer system. This robust interior leads to frictionless, fluid blade movement within a stylish housing. Meanstreak’s titanium handles are extremely lightweight and durable, with a cross-hatch texture for grip. A titanium pocket clip provides low-profile, secure carry that can be moved to either side (or removed altogether).

CPM MagnaCut is the latest in American-made wear-resistant and premium particle metallurgy stainless tool steel for knives. Magnacut is an extremely tough stainless steel with excellent edge retention properties and outstanding corrosion resistance - which is why chose MagnaCut for their Meanstreak series of folders. More details on toughness, edge retention and corrosion resistance included below:  

Toughness

CPM Magnacut steel toughness is better than most other steels on the market, its toughness is on par with CPM 4V. Very few steels can beat MagnaCut toughness, including 3V, CPM CruWear, AEB-L, 14C28N, LC200N and 420HC.

Edge Retention

Due to the high hardness of the MagnaCut, the edge retention is excellent. According to industry standardized CATRA edge retention testing, Magnacut holds an edge in the range between S35VN and S45VN steels. MagnaCut easily bests those two types of steel in toughness and corrosion resistance. 

Corrosion Resistance

A major benefit with Magnacut is its extreme corrosion resistance.  It may well be the highest performing stainless steel on the knife market. It performs very well in wet, humid, or coastal environments.
