Ruike D198-PB Knife Description

The Ruike D198-PB folding knife from the Ruike brand is a lightweight and reliable tool for everyday carry and outdoor activities. When open, the product length is 231 mm, blade length is 98 mm, and weight is only 118 g, making it convenient for daily carry in a pocket or bag. The knife belongs to the category: Camping & Tourism > Tourism > Multi-functional Knives and is ideal for both household tasks and outdoor work.

The blade is made of 8Cr13MoV steel. Steel composition: carbon — 0.8%, chromium — 13%, manganese — 0.4%, silicon — 0.5%, nickel — 0.2%, molybdenum — 0.15%, phosphorus — 0.02%, vanadium — 0.1%. This composition provides good corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and blade strength; the presence of chromium and silicon reduces the likelihood of chips and deformations when performing more complex tasks.

The blade spine has a thickness of 3.1 mm — optimal for working with materials of various hardness. The blade hardness is 57-59 HRC, which allows the blade to be easily sharpened and to retain its sharpness for a long time even with intensive use. The blade has a matte finish, obtained by the Stonewash method, which improves the appearance, hides minor scratches, and further strengthens the steel surface.

The Liner Lock is responsible for reliable blade fixation — one of the most common and reliable mechanisms that allows opening and closing the knife with one hand and ensures safety during operation. The model is equipped with a flipper for quick blade deployment.

The handle is made of durable PA66 polyamide, which withstands high temperatures and is more wear-resistant compared to ordinary plastic. The scales have a wavy texture for better grip and tool control, even when hands are wet or gloved. For convenient carrying, a metal clip is provided, which can be removed by unscrewing two screws.

The Ruike D198-PB is a convenient flipper for everyday use: suitable for camping, fishing, country house, household chores, and as a stylish gift. The aesthetic design is combined with practicality, so the knife will be suitable both in urban conditions and during outdoor activities.
