Among the latest additions to the folding pocket knife category from the American brand Camillus Cutlery is a series of small knives called Camillus Chunk, which belongs to the budget direction of the brand. The new folding knife stands out as a rugged, compact and relatively lightweight all-rounder with a lifetime warranty, perfect for everyday carrying on a trouser pocket..
For the manufacture of the blade, which has a Drop Point shape with elements of the geometry of a small «cleaver» (Cleaver), stainless steel grade 420 is used, which provides for additional corrosion-resistant treatment with Carbonitride Titanium. The hardness of the steel used does not exceed 52-55 units on the HRC scale. The handle of the knife is made from a combination of steel liners and external textured grips made from glass fiber reinforced nylon.
The blade of the Camillus Chunk model can be removed both with the help of classic pegs and with the use of a flipper. To fix the blade there is a conventional steel lock of the Liner-Lock type. The design of the handle includes a lanyard hole and a detachable steel clip that can be mounted in two positions. The total length of the open knife is just over 184 mm, the folded length is almost 108 mm, the blade length is 76 mm. Approximate weight of the novelty is not more than 173 grams.
