The Citizen SSH EDC knife is a small knife designed for everyday use. Like most EDC knives, it is lightweight, durable and dependable. Most feature a single blade with a straight edge, allowing them to perform everyday functions such as opening mail, rigging rope, or even preparing meals.
Though small in size, a Citizen SSH knife is an invaluable tool for those who need it regularly throughout the day.
The Ultimate EDC Knife
The right everyday carry (EDC) knife should fit our individual needs, be reliable and dependable, easy to sharpen and maintain, lightweight yet durable, and provide comfort in the hand while using it.
Ultimately, the most crucial feature of the Citizen SSH knife is ensuring it can perform the specific tasks you need. Whether cutting random items outdoors or completing DIY jobs around the house, having a knife that will perform flawlessly when needed is imperative. Everyday carry (EDC), camping, hunting, bushcrafting and other outdoor activities — this knife can tackle anything.
The Many Uses of Citizen SSH
From the outdoors enthusiast who needs a blade for cutting rope or whittling branches to the busy father who needs something to open packages when out and about — an EDC knife is a must-have for anyone planning on taking on that tough project or everyday chore. With an EDC, you can tackle whatever comes your way quickly and efficiently – making it an invaluable tool for any situation!
EDC Knife Construction
Citizen SHH is a full tang fixed blade knife crafted with 5Cr14MoV stainless steel. It typically has no foldable parts and is more robust than other construction types due to the lack of weak spots.
Furthermore, full tang fixed blade knives can handle harsh use more effectively because the handle and blade form a stable, solid unit. This makes them ideal for tactical tasks, camping, and hunting. It is also important to note that maintenance on this type of knife requires less effort due to its simple construction – only requiring sharpening or oiling at intervals.
Unique Micarta Handle
This tactical knife has been designed with an ergonomic Micarta handle that securely fits your hand, providing a comfortable and secure grip. Micarta handles are made of unique material that has impacted the outdoor and sporting goods markets. They provide an excellent grip on any tool or equipment, even wet or oily.
Furthermore, they are incredibly strong and resistant to abrasions. On top of their practical advantages, they also add a unique look and style to Citizen SHH knives. The combination of function and durability makes them the perfect choice for stylish and long-lasting tools.
This is the second knife with a Micarta handle made by BPS Knives. The first one, called an Independence Knife, was a limited edition of 100 pieces, with all proceeds directed to a charity called “Come Back Alive”. This fantastic knife was completely sold out in a matter of hours.
Now the superior qualities of Micarta’s firm yet comfortable grip are available for everyone to buy. Among the benefits:
- Its unique combination of layers of canvas and resin makes it durable, long-lasting, and reliable in all conditions.
- Micarta handle is moisture-resistant and has excellent shock absorption attributes, which help to reduce vibration and strain during use.
- In addition, Micarta’s distinct layering pattern is beautiful to admire and can add a special touch to your EDC knife.
Sharp for Life
This tactical knife is constructed with a hardened stainless steel blade, providing superior sharpness and durability.
Hardened stainless steel blades have become increasingly popular due to their unique combination of strength and durability. This is because hardened stainless steel is more resistant to blunt force, corrosion, and other forms of physical damage.
It also retains its cutting power for a longer period of time than traditional blades, which allows for maximum efficiency and performance in many different industrial applications. Citizen SSH is made of 5Cr14MoV steel hardened to 56-58 HRC, ensuring a long-lasting, razor-sharp edge.
The metal’s natural non-porous structure also provides an extra layer of protection from bacteria build-up and infection risks. As such, it is no surprise that hardened stainless steel blades are the go-to product for many industries looking to create sharp cutting tools and knives that can stand up to the rigors of daily use.
