Luminary ZBP D/E Signature Black DLC Aluminum, Black DLC F/S is a full-size OTF (Out The Front) automatic knife from the prestigious Signature Series.Created through a collaboration betweenMicrotech and SureFire. The construction is distinguished by the complete absence of any blade play when deployed – ensuring maximum rigidity and absolute confidence in the mechanism’s performance. The blade play free automatic is distinguished by a number of improvements such as; Crud Kutter™, Dual-Fuel Drive Train™, Zero Blade Play™. Operating in D/A (Double Action) mode, it allows the blade to be instantly extended and retracted with a flick of the thumb, guaranteeing unparalleled speed and reliability in situations requiring immediate response. The proprietary design by Tony Marfione, founder and owner of Microtech Knives, combines modern design with the highest quality workmanship to create a unique model valued by collectors and professional users alike.
Zero Blade Play™ – a redesigned blade locking system, getting rid of the affliction of most OTF knives, i.e. play on the blade when opened.
Dual-Fuel Drive Train™ – an upgraded knife opening/closing system, the mechanism works smoother and requires less force to open/close the knife.
Crud Kutter™ – a series of beveled notches under the opening slide, prevents the accumulation of dirt that could interfere with the opening mechanism.
Signature Series – Microtech’s elite product line designed for buyers who are looking for a more exclusive touch to the much-loved Core Series production models (logo with claws on the knife). The highest quality materials and finishes are often used in the production of Signature Series knives. The line also includes themed knives such as Bounty Hunter, Outbreak, Memento Mori and Molon Labe. A distinctive feature is the marking with the dagger logo on the Handle and Anthony Marfione’s signature on the clip.
M390MK – a collaboration between Microtech and Böhler engineers resulted in an exclusive version of M390 steel made only for Microtech. The carbon content has been increased and subjected to closer scrutiny thus improving the properties of M390 steel to provide better edge retention, corrosion resistance and polishing. Martensitic high-performance chromium steel produced by powder metallurgy. Due to its alloy concept, it has extremely high wear resistance and high corrosion resistance. Due to its high wear resistance, it adequately maintains the shape of the edge, so the blade stays sharp for a very long time (requiring minimal maintenance). Another of the advantages is resistance to the formation of “wire” during sharpening. The steel has a high chromium content of 19.0% (Cr) doped with 1.95% carbon (C), vanadium 4.0% (V), and is hardened to 59-61 HRC. This super steel is comparable to Carpenter’s CPM 20CV or CTS-204P steels. Manufactured by Böhler Edelstahl in Kapfenberg, Austria.
DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) durability of the blade surface is enhanced with a matte black nanocomposite coating, which exhibits unique properties such as exceptional hardness and low friction, as well as excellent corrosion protection. It is one of the most resistant coatings to scratches and abrasion that are used in the industry, including the knife industry.
Blade – machine groundD/E(Double Edge) Dagger profile, sharpened on both sides, with the a upper edge F/S (Fully Serrated).Coated with a black DLC coating. The blade is brought outwith a high Flat Grind for excellent cutting properties. As a result, while maintaining high strength, the knife has excellent piercing properties. The powerful mechanism of extending / retracting the blade with the help of a moled Thumb Slide, a stepped slide under the thumb requires for safety the application of a specific force to overcome the resistance of the spring. A tritium insert has been placed in the slider, glowing in the dark, for easier finding of the knife in the dark. The way of opening provides trouble-free opening for both right and left-handed people.
Handle – made with perfect precision in 3D technology on CNC milling machines, from DLC-coated hard aluminum 6061-T6. On the Handle deeply engraved Microtech logo, a claw of a bird of prey. The surface texture of the Handle makes the knife non-slip in the hand during use. There are notches (jimping) on the back and bottom of the handle for a more secure grip. Innovative boltless handle design. The slim profile and milled two-position (right/left) solid titanium deep-carry clip allow the knife to be carried discreetly in a pocket, in tip-down (blade tip down) position. Equipped with a smooth rollerball, which allows the knife to slide easily into the pocket without damaging the edges of the pocket. The Handle is finished with a new version of glass breaker, a steel pyramid, into which a tungsten carbide ball has been pressed. On the back of the Handle there is a hole for interweaving a decorative cord.
