The Orange Cutter MTech – Spring-assisted pocket knife with cleaver blade

The Orange Cutter by MTech is a compact pocket knife featuring a 5.71cm cleaver-style blade and spring-assisted opening mechanism. Constructed from 3Cr13 stainless steel with a coated finish, this EDC knife weighs 91 grams and measures 9.53cm when folded.

Construction and materials

The blade utilises 3Cr13 stainless steel with a thickness of 3mm and features a plain-edge grind. Total length when open reaches 15.24cm. The handle incorporates blue and orange accents for visibility, while the liner lock mechanism ensures secure blade retention during use.

Application and use

Designed for everyday carry and light utility tasks, this pocket knife handles package opening, rope cutting, and basic food preparation. The cleaver blade shape provides additional leverage for push cuts. The one-handed opening capability and pocket clip make it suitable for tradespersons, students, or general EDC users requiring quick access to a cutting tool.

Integration and compatibility

The integrated pocket clip allows standard pocket or belt carry. The spring-assisted mechanism enables smooth one-handed deployment without requiring specific hand positioning. Compatible with most standard knife maintenance tools and sharpening systems suitable for 3Cr13 steel.

Maintenance and lifecycle

The 3Cr13 steel offers good corrosion resistance but requires periodic sharpening to maintain edge retention. The coated finish provides additional protection against scratches and wear. Regular cleaning and light oiling of the pivot and locking mechanism will ensure smooth operation of the spring-assist function.
