Crucible CPM 154 scalpel with bronze anodizing
The Hurricane Razor Burnt Bronze is an unusual accessory, a sharp tactical tool, and a collector's piece. The model was released in a limited run and quickly discontinued — tracking down a "Hurricane Scalpel" is a real stroke of luck for any collector of cutting and piercing artifacts.
The origin story of the Hurricane Razor 2.0 is steeped in romance. New York knifemaker Rob Amsler found himself cut off from the world by a hurricane. He satisfied his lack of daily bread with spiritual nourishment — specifically, by developing a design for an unboxing knife. Thus was born an insanely stylish accessory that dispatches packaging with ease — and more besides.
The steel skeleton of the scalpel is crafted from a knifemaker's favorite — American Crucible CPM® 154 high-carbon powdered steel. This grade offers excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and outstanding edge retention. The heat treatment was performed personally by Paul Bos — an American legend in the field of blade thermal processing.
The notches on the skeletonized body are designed to accommodate rubber O-rings, which help secure a reliable grip even in a wet hand.
The bronze anodizing lends the "Hurricane Scalpel" a special steampunk charm. The same finish covers the titanium pocket clip and hardware. The elongated clip shape harmoniously integrates into the overall concept and comfortably secures the Hurricane Razor Burnt Bronze to clothing.
The blade shape is inspired by the legendary samurai tanto dagger. The cutting edge is as sharp as a medical scalpel. Accidental cuts are prevented by the robust Kydex sheath, whose perforations allow the scalpel to be worn as a neck knife.
The scalpel comes with a set of rubber O-rings and a certificate signed by Rob Amsler.
