Pro Tip & ARC® Master Maintenance: Because the ARC® utilizes cutting-edge FREE® magnetic architecture, its opening action is legendary. To preserve that buttery-smooth deployment, keep the inner channels free of heavy magnetic metal shavings or pocket lint by wiping them out with a microfibre cloth or blasting them with compressed air. While the MagnaCut® blade is essentially immune to corrosion, the mechanical pivots and spring locks thrive on a drop of premium synthetic tool oil once a season. When sharpening the 60-63 HRC MagnaCut® blade, use high-quality diamond or ceramic sharpening systems to easily maintain its wicked, factory-precise razor edge!
