With its slim silhouette, ergonomic G10 handle, and smooth flipper opening, the Artia is designed for secure handling and practical use.

The D2 steel blade offers excellent hardness (HRC 59–61) and edge retention, enhanced by a black PTFE coating that increases wear and corrosion resistance while reducing reflections.

A reversible pocket clip adds flexibility for left- or right-hand carry, making the Artia both practical and discreet.
