Blade Artistry and Steel
-
Material: The blade is crafted from S90V, a premium high-vanadium steel known for its extreme wear resistance and edge retention.
-
Detailing: It features a stunning laser-etched wave pattern, adding a unique visual texture that elevates it above standard Custom Division builds.
Mechanical Perfection: SRRBS
While most Shirogorovs run on a Multi-Row Bearing System (MRBS), this Custom Division masterpiece utilizes the SRRBS (Single Row Roller Bearing System). These rollers provide significantly more surface contact than standard ball bearings, resulting in an action that is famously “insanely smooth” and rock-solid, with a signature hydraulic feel.
Elite Construction

Handle: Features titanium anodized scales over titanium liners, providing a premium, lightweight, and vibrant chassis.
