— April 9, 2022 — Lifestyle
The Sandrin Knives Monza knife is a new piece of everyday carry (EDC) equipment for discerning DIYers, makers and campers alike that will keep them prepared for a range of activities. The knife is constructed with a 4.29-inch handle that utilizes the Recoil Lock Mechanism to ensure smooth opening, locking and closing. The knife has a 3.38-inch tungsten carbide blade that benefits from the brand's StaySharp Technology to maintain its sharpness for around four-times longer than alternatives on the market.

The Sandrin Knives Monza knife comes in two versions including one with a titanium handle and another with a zirconium handle, which are priced at $399 and $499, respectively.
