VP5988GB: Turn Essential Folding Knife - Black G10
Viper Knives
The Turn Essential by Fabrizio Silvestrelli is a folding knife with an advanced lock-back system blending tradition, practicality, and modern construction technologies. The Essential line takes the loved design of the original Turn and provides slight tweaks while not sacrificing quality or performance. It is one of the few lockback designs to use ball bearings, ensuring a smooth and fluid rotation of the blade. The blade is Bohler M390 stainless steel with high bevels and a bold counter-bevel. The handles consist of G10 (this model), Micarta, or carbon fiber, all of which sit of stainless steel liners. The Turn combines classic styling with a ton of modern features that make it a force to be reckoned with for your hard-earned dollars.
Pocket Clip
Includes a pocket clip for easy accessibility and a more secure carry.
M390
A go-to option for premium knives. Made by Bohler-Uddeholm, this 3rd generation powder-metal alloy offers high edge retention and excellent stainless properties.
G10 Handles
Formed in a sheet under high pressure by combining fiberglass and an epoxy resin binder. These handles are lightweight and shaped to ensure a solid grip.
Lockback
The lockback system has been used for many decades. It can usually be found on the knife spine and it provides a strong lockup that will wear well.

Viper Knives Turn Essential Folding Knife 3.23" M390 Satin Clip Point Blade, Black G10 Handles
I wanted an Italian made knife and it did not disappoint. Sharp and built like a bank vault. The only issue for me was the blade coming down on my index finger when the lock bar was disengaged. After a few band aids I used my Dremel tool and grinded a small flat spot on the blade. Problem solved and now she's perfect and always with me!
