Nitro-V Steel
Nitro-V is a martensitic stainless steel known for its high corrosion resistance, toughness, and ease of sharpening, making it a popular choice for knives and outdoor tools. It is an enhanced version of AEB-L steel, with added nitrogen and vanadium to improve edge retention and toughness. This steel balances hardness and flexibility well, making it ideal for everyday carry (EDC) knives.

African Zebrawood Handle
African Zebrawood, also known as Zebrano, is a striking knife handle material prized for its bold, contrasting grain patterns that resemble the stripes of a zebra. It’s a dense and durable hardwood, offering excellent strength and resistance to wear, making it ideal for functional and decorative knife handles. Its unique appearance adds a touch of natural elegance, often highlighted with a smooth, polished finish.

Quinn Knives' take:
The Goon Squad is one of the latest releases from Chris at Freebooter Blades and it has been an immediate hit. The retention ring makes this a quick draw and secure option with a blade length that allows everything from quick defensive work to standard EDC duties.
