TUSCAN S600 BLACK EXTREMA RATIO KNIFE (TUS-S600-BK)

Tuscan is a tribute to our region, Tuscany. This land is characterized by breathtaking landscapes, hills, mountains, cities of art, villages, rivers and the Tyrrhenian Sea that bathes its coasts.

Tuscan is a multi-role knife that is completely at home in any type of environment. In military tactical theaters, this knife stands out for its versatility in operating in various contexts, from surveillance and patrol operations to combat scenarios. Its adaptability also makes it ideal for use in urban areas where it is necessary to move quickly and with agility. At the same time, Tuscan is perfectly suited to use in outdoor, survival and bushcraft environments.

A new version of the Tuscan model is available from today, made of Böhler S600 steel with a hardness of 64 HRC: Tuscan S600 Black.

The great success achieved by our products made with this steel and the requests of our passionate customers have pushed us to expand the range of materials available for the Tuscan, offering from today this version in S600, appreciated for its extraordinary performance and hardness.

Böhler S600 steel (64 HRC) is used in industrial production for the manufacture of metalworking tools and in the production of molds.

The high content of molybdenum, tungsten and a good presence of vanadium in its chemical composition give the knife excellent qualities of hardness, wear resistance and toughness. The presence of cobalt favors the formation of small, uniformly distributed carbides, a feature that further improves wear resistance. Tuscan S600 Black is tempered and cryogenically treated, reaching an exceptional hardness of 64 HRC, which gives it great wear resistance and the ability to maintain a sharp edge for a long time. Böhler S600 contains 4.5% chromium, which makes it an oxidizable steel. For this reason, Extrema Ratio has chosen the new EXP DARK coating for this knife.

Tuscan is extremely easy to handle, featuring a full tang blade lightened at various points in the area under the handle (including a slot positioned in the center of the handle) that allows the weight of the knife to be shifted toward the tip in order to increase the impact force and facilitate chopping and batoning operations. The Tuscan blade allows these different operations to be carried out thanks to its particular sharpening, finer in the part near the handle and thicker at the top. While the tip area lends itself to the chopping and batoning operations mentioned above, the point in the part adjacent to the handle allows for cutting operations.

Unlike sharpening, the thickness of the sharpening remains the same along the entire blade. The tang can also be used as a glass breaker.

The handle, in green color, is composed of 2 ergonomic scales with a new original Extrema Ratio design made of G10 material. This new handle allows you to use the Tuscan comfortably with both a standard and reverse grip, and is suitable for use by operators with or without gloves.

The ambidextrous green Cordura sheath is equipped with a thigh strap for attachment to the side and a MOLLE system that allows it to be carried on tactical vests and generic belts.
