Corolon appears to be a popular material these days for knife handles. There are Case XX, Hen & Rooster, and others that appear to be using it.
Does anyone know what corolon is made of?
Also, I see that Boker and others are continuing to use Celluloid for handle materials. From what I gather, Celluloid is very flammable (it's related to nitrocellulose), and was largely discontinued in use by most manufacturers back in the 1940's. I'm not sure that I want to own a celluloid-handled knife...
Anyway, what's this Corolon?
