Description
The QSP Viper QS166-B1 features a 10Cr15MoV blade, equivalent to Japanese VG-10 stainless steel, delivering exceptional corrosion resistance and reliable edge retention. This clip-point fixed blade achieves a razor-sharp edge that's straightforward to resharpen. With an overall length of 8.50" and a 4" blade, it balances slicing performance with practical handling. The OD Green G10 handle provides durability and secure grip. Hardened to 59-61 HRC, the blade maintains sharpness through regular use, though its moderate impact toughness means it's best suited for slicing rather than heavy chopping tasks. Weighing approximately 120g with a 76g sheath, this knife combines precision engineering with everyday portability for hunters, campers, and outdoor enthusiasts.
10Cr15MoV Blade Introduction
10Cr15MoV is a high-carbon stainless steel—widely regarded as the equivalent to Japanese VG-10—engineered for balanced slicing performance. Its greatest strengths include exceptional corrosion resistance, dependable edge retention, and the ability to achieve a razor-sharp apex that remains relatively straightforward to resharpen. Conversely, its primary compromise is moderate impact toughness; due to its elevated hardness, the edge can be susceptible to micro-chipping under heavy lateral torque or abusive impact tasks compared to tougher tool steels.
