M95 PTFE Black Peltonen Knife

What is TPV material?

TPV (Thermoplastic Vulcanised) is a type of plastic material that combines the properties of elastomers (rubbers) with those of thermoplastics. This means that TPV has the flexibility, elasticity and strength of rubber, but also the ease of processing of conventional plastics.

Wear and impact resistance: TPV is very durable and wear-resistant, which means that the knife handle maintains its integrity during prolonged use, even in difficult conditions.

Comfort and secure grip: The material has a surface that provides excellent grip, even in wet or slippery conditions. This is especially important in outdoor activities, where safety and control of the knife are critical.

Extreme temperature resistance: TPV can withstand both high and low temperatures without losing its properties, making it ideal for extreme use environments, such as in the wilderness or during expeditions.

Durability and flexibility: Although tough, the TPV is also flexible, giving it an ergonomic feel in the hand and helping to reduce fatigue over long periods of use.
