The blade is 160 mm (6.3”) long and 6.3 mm (0.2”) thick; it is particularly suitable for chopping, ensuring precise and powerful blows.

It is a blade designed to endure intense workloads, maintaining high performance in every situation.

Böhler S600 (64 HRC) steel is used for manufacturing metalwork and stamp-creation tools.

The high content of molybdenum, tungsten, and a good presence of vanadium in its chemical composition provide excellent qualities of hardness, wear resistance and toughness. The presence of cobalt stimulates the growth of small uniformly distributed carbides, a feature that further improves wear resistance. Selvans S600 Black is hardened and cryogenically treated, thus reaching an exceptional hardness of 64 HRC; this makes it very resistant to wear and gives the edge a lasting sharpening. Böhler S600 has 4.5% of chrome, which makes it oxidizable. For this reason, Extrema Ratio has chosen the new EXP DARK Teflon-based finish.

Selvans S600 Black comes with a black Cordura thigh sheath, equipped with MOLLE fixing system that allows to attach it to backpacks and tactical jackets, ensuring a practical and versatile carry.

Selvans S600 Black is the ideal companion for those looking for a reliable knife for hiking, bushcraft, outdoor activities, and survival situations, ensuring excellent performance in all circumstances.
