Sangin Knife, The Corsair. Bought in 2023 (I think), never used. Below is a description from Sangin: (Note - the description is for a Sangin Corsair with an ebony handle which states it\'s a limited run of 100 pieces. The knife listed is a brass and cocobolo handle - I am not sure how many pieces were made.). ***UPDATE*** I found another listing and this knife is listed as The Corsair LE and it looks like only 100 were made.
Sangin Knives - The Corsair. New in box.From the manufacturer:The Sangin Knives, limited, numbered Corsair is a 9.0\" blade and 0.1875\" thick, made from premium Crucible Metals CPM M4. We found CPM M4 to be a very flexible steel that also offers amazing wear resistance, as well as being able to endure high impacts. The blade is finished in an ultra-corrosion-resistant black KG Gunkote.
During our research, we found using KG Gunkote provided a much thinner ceramic-based coating, which adds minimum dimension to critical geometries in the knife.The Corsair is fitted with premium brass and ebony handles, giving it a polished design with a sturdy feel. As a knife industry outsider, we\'ve had past issues with handles falling off the blades upon impact. It came down to the glue and epoxy used to secure the handles. With that in mind, we set out to find a better way to do things. With precision-turned brass tubing, we can hold incredibly tight tolerances which allow our handles to be press fitted and secured using friction. This is a significant upgrade, solving the issue of handle scale fracturing and separation from the steel.Additionally, we have developed a way to ensure long lasting handle fitment with our set pins, as the handle materials tend to swell and condense in different climates. To finish the handle scales, we developed a monolithictexturing process that allows us to produce seamless texture across multiple materials in the handle, leaving you with a comfortable and strong fit.Lastly, the brass tubes also allow the user to fasten safety lanyards to the knife.
One of the most iconic features on the Corsair is our patent pending Positive Jimping™. Traditionally, fixed and folding knives have small round cuts near the thumb ramp, called \"Jimping,\" to add grip to the knife. However, we found that to be slightly uncomfortable and aesthetically lacking. We set out to find a way to secure small, precision-machined rods into the jimping recesses to provide a positive texture. The Positive Jimping™ provides a smoother grip option for the thumb and adds a refined touch to the Corsair\'s overall design.
As we\'ve stated before, the Corsair is extremely limited. We are only producing 100 blades in this brass and ebony design. This exact design will be archived and NEVER be produced again.
Included with this blade is a serialized authenticity card, a suede lined KYDEX® sheath and leather mounting strap, and a premium S3 case with die cut foam liner.
We\'ve put an incredible amount of thought, time and energy into this blade, and we at Sangin Knives hope that you love the Corsair as much as we do.
