RST7832N: G5 Metamorph Button Lock - Natural G10
Real Steel Knives
The G5 Metamorph is the flagship of RSK design and innovation in the G (Gentleman) Class. Knifemaker and designer Ostap Hel's unfailing ability to produce sublime design has been combined beautifully with RSK's constant drive for innovation. This knife represents RSK's metamorphosis into 2018 and is continued in 2023 with a new button lock version. This button lock Metamorph is fitted with a 14C28N blade with a black finish like the original but is deployed with a thumb stud and not a flipper tab. This folding knife is fitted with bearings for a smooth and unhindered opening. The button lock operates perfectly and is fun to use and to maintain the Metamorph's feather-light feel, the handle and backspacer are entirely made of G10. The backspacer has also been designed and developed for complete safety when closed. Thanks to the smooth contorted lines of the Metamorph's profile, the top of the blade also has a milled-out 'digit stop' for maximum control and effectiveness when cutting smaller objects.

Pros: Blade Material, Blade Sharpness, Handle Feel, Overall Quality, Weight
Cons: Lock Ease of Use
Long, pokey, and sharp!
Used mostly at work to open packaging. It's almost unnoticed in a shirt pocket. Came very sharp with a very good fit and finish. It's my first button lock and works to keep the blade closed as well a open. I just can't figure out why it needs a thumb stud you can't use until you depress the button and release the blade, unlike a cross bar lock that gives way at thumb stud pressure.
