Chris Reeve Umnumzaan Glasblasted Lefthand

Chris Reeve Umnumzaan Tanto - The Boss This is how the word "Umnumzaan" from the Zulu language of South Africa could be translated into German.And Reeve do not promise too much: the Umnumzaan is really the boss of the Reeve folding knives.Unlike the Sebenza 21 or the Inkosi, the blasted titanium handle has been given a milled pattern, which makes for a cool look on the one hand and more grip on the other.The shape has also been made more ergonomic to achieve an even better hand position. When closing the Umnumzaans Chris Reeve Knives have come up with something special: the Detentball, which was made of an extremely hard ceramic, also serves as a contact point to the blade root when the knife is open.This ensures that the softer titanium does not wear out over the years when it comes into contact with the hardened steel. At the same time, an overtravel stop has been incorporated, which ensures that the locking mechanism is not accidentally overstretched when unlocked. The hollow ground blade made of CPM S35VN steel, co-developed by Chris Reeve, is as stable as it is cutting-friendly and, thanks to the recesses placed on the back of the blade, proves to be very easy to grip.The thumb can therefore be comfortably placed on the blade to exert more pressure on the cut material.The thumb pins on both sides not only serve as an opening aid, but also ensure a defined blade stop when open, while the rubber coating of the pins protects the titanium from scratches.As with all other Reeve folding knives, the Umnumzaan has the typical defined blade action where you feel like the blade is running on glass. When the knife is closed, the blade root acts as a glass breaker, which further emphasizes the tactical character of the Umnumzaan. Reeve have actually created a knife with the Umnumzaan, which on the one hand is incredibly sturdily constructed, but on the other hand still displays an excellent cutting performance. So if you are looking for a really massive folding knife, the Umnumzaan might be interesting for you. TantoHardly any Tanto blade is as universally applicable as Chris Reeve's interpretation. Thanks to its slightly bulbous shape, this blade combined the cutting ability of a droppoint blade with the sturdiness (especially in the tip) of a tanto knife.
