This model also features a standard 1/4" (14mm) bit-driver build-in to the scales, similar to the design used on some larger 130mm models.
The handles (or scales) are made from a titanium metal alloy. The liner-lock on this knife is released by pressing the red Wenger logo button, or by pressing the protruding tab on the actual liner.
Designed to meet the needs of mountain climbers, this model is a member of the Titanium Line designed in partnership with well known Swiss mountaineer Ueli Steck.
