Artisan Cutlery Mini Xcellerator Framelock Folding Knife, S90V, Titanium, 1860GS-GY
[ATZ1860GSGY]

My first Artisan Cutlery piece is this Mini Xcellerator … honestly it’s a 10/10 … beautiful ergonomics, frag texture on the titanium scales is perfect.. The selling point for me was the S90V. It HRC’s at just over 61.2 and is very impressive, rivals most S90V that’s out there , S90V isn’t too hard to sharpen if you use the proper stones / tools .. but will hold an edge forever almost , it’s only out-performed by CPM REX 121 and Maxamet. The action is smooth , very fidgety and reverse flickable … the titanium gold anodized pivot collars and backspacer are done very well . Best part about this knife , you get the feel and the performance of 1000$ or more Snody Custom … for a budget friendly price. T8 and T6 hardware , makes for easy disassembly and cleaning , blade centering is perfect .. and the sand polish is near-mirror finish on the blade. Thank you 🙏
