CJRB Pyrite-Alt (J1925A) Folding Pocket Knife

CJRB, a subsidiary of Artisan Cutlery Inc., is dedicated to providing precision-made tools that seamlessly integrate into our users' lifestyles. Our focus on quality, design, and functionality has led us to create the CJRB line of products, which offers affordability and utility without compromising the renowned build quality and materials associated with Artisan Cutlery.

Introducing the Pyrite-Alt, a versatile EDC (Everyday Carry) knife that builds upon the success of our original Pyrite model. While the original Pyrite has been widely acclaimed as the best budget knife to date, we've decided to refine the formula to cater to the preferences of our customers.

The Pyrite-Alt features a modified Wharncliffe blade and an opening hole, rather than the original thumb stud, for a more fidget-friendly experience. Like the original Pyrite, the Pyrite-Alt will be offered with full steel handles, ensuring a sturdy and balanced feel in the hand. The scales have been strategically milled to maintain a comfortable weight while providing a rugged and clean appearance, with either a stonewash finish or a full black PVD coating.

At the heart of the Pyrite-Alt is our proprietary AR-RPM9 steel, which strikes the perfect balance between edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening. This makes the Pyrite-Alt an ideal choice for an everyday carry knife that can withstand the demands of your adventures.

The modified Wharncliffe-style blade on the Pyrite-Alt is designed to maximize cutting power while minimizing the overall edge length. This means that even short cuts can bite deep and separate materials with ease, effectively allowing the 3.10-inch blade to perform the work of much larger knives. The fine tip is perfect for piercing cuts and detailed work, while the slight curvature of the blade enhances slicing capabilities for general tasks. Additionally, the blade shape facilitates easy sharpening and maintenance.

Comfort and carry are essential factors in the Pyrite-Alt's design. The knife features a razor-thin 0.11-inch blade stock, which allows it to glide through cuts with incredible accuracy. Coupled with the slim handles and aggressive milling, the thin stock helps to significantly reduce the overall weight of the knife, keeping it comfortable and light in the pocket.

The Pyrite-Alt is equipped with a button lock, a popular choice for those seeking a fidget-friendly manual locking mechanism that still provides exceptional strength and performance. The button lock allows for quick and fluid deployment using the thumb hole and easy closing with a simple press of the button.

To ensure comfortable carry, the Pyrite-Alt features a two-position deep-carry pocket clip that disappears into any pants pocket and firmly secures the knife in place. Additionally, a discreet lanyard pin allows for the use of lanyards without disrupting the flow of the scales.

Whether you're an avid outdoor enthusiast, a dedicated EDC enthusiast, or simply someone in search of a reliable and versatile tool, the CJRB Pyrite-Alt is a compelling choice that combines affordability, quality, and performance.
