The Gold Cutter MTech – Cleaver-style EDC pocket knife with integrated bottle opener

The Gold Cutter by MTech is a pocket knife featuring a distinctive cleaver blade shape and gold-coloured finish. This compact folding knife combines a 5.7cm blade length with practical EDC functionality, including an integrated bottle opener. The blade material is 3Cr13 stainless steel with a plain edge configuration.

Construction and materials

The knife measures 15.24cm when open and 9.53cm when folded, weighing 91 grams. The blade uses 3Cr13 steel, a Chinese stainless steel grade that offers reasonable edge retention and corrosion resistance. The gold-coloured finish covers the handle and hardware, while the liner lock mechanism secures the blade during use.

Application and use

This pocket knife suits urban EDC applications including opening packages, cutting cord, and food preparation tasks. The cleaver-style blade shape provides a broad cutting surface useful for push-cutting motions. The integrated bottle opener adds utility for social settings or office environments where a conversation-starting design may be appreciated.

Integration and compatibility

The liner lock mechanism allows single-handed operation and blade deployment. At 9.53cm closed length, the knife fits standard pockets and EDC pouches. The smooth gold finish may require additional grip consideration in wet conditions. No special tools or adapters are needed for basic maintenance.

Maintenance and lifecycle

The 3Cr13 steel requires regular maintenance to prevent corrosion. Clean and dry the blade after use, applying light oil monthly to the pivot point. The relatively soft steel composition allows easy sharpening with standard whetstones. Regular maintenance will extend the service life of both the blade edge and locking mechanism.
