For Sale-----Strider SnG DGG,--OD Green-- Monkey Edge--Rare CPM3V Steel-Titanium Handle Material--
MONKEYS EDGE EXCLUSIVE Very LIMITED Run STRIDER did for them-Sold out in very fast as I recall

Received this in a trade
Need to move for teeth work

This seems to be a fairly rare configuration
OD Green DGG (both front and lockside)
Its seems uncarried on the body of the knife-ONLY APPARENT marks are
present in pictures of the blade-NOT sure why or how well the DLC coating wears with
handing etc.. The blade sharpeness is on the money..VERY SHARP..
Lock up and line up are ROCK SOLID--
Edge is very very nice..Solid Example of an Exclusive Blade
Former owner stated he is second owner
Blade as seen in pictures has DLC thinning.
In front and back if held in the right light
One side towards the tip DLC thin as shown in picture
I am VERY VERY Aware that the ""Steel==CPM3V==Is quite rare in some Strider Knives==
Look at pictures--ask as many questions as you wish..SO condition is fully understood.
I was told uncarried--Its never seen my pocket--I feel the DLC wear is from handling etc..
Email me with questions.

More about the STEEL---------------

About CPM 3V: The three criteria for steels are toughness (impact), wear resistance (edge retention), and corrosion resistance and it is a balancing act between them when using a material for knives. CPM 3V has wear resistance (edge retention) that is comparable to the standard S30V. However, the toughness of CPM 3V far exceeds all of the other common blade steels (by like a factor of 3). The trade off (remember that it is a balancing act) is that it has a lower chromium content and is not as stain resistant and corrosion resistant as the S30V. Before you have a heart attack about that fact and think that it will rust by looking at it, just remember that most guns are in fact NOT stainless steel. Whole bunches of folks have been killed with M1 Garands and 1911's that were not stainless steel. CPM 3V is still an alloy steel so will not corrode like a normal carbon steel. So take care of your gear and it will take care of you. CPM 3V is THE hard use steel. For more information, download the Crucible Data Sheet on CPM 3V
