Key parameters
Key benefits
- Micro-Melt PD#1 – a demanding steel comparable to CPM Crucible, with an excellent balance of hardness and toughness
- The lightweight FRN handle contributes to the low overall weight, yet remains strong thanks to skeletonized liners
- Ti

- 🔴 Drawbacks
- Sprint Run production quality can sometimes show minor imperfections – for example in part alignment or edge finish
- The FRN handle is lightweight, but less pleasant than G-10 or titanium, especially during prolonged use
- Larger size – the Police 4 is half an inch longer than the classic Police, which may be too much for some users
- Ti
- CN coating may partially wear off in key areas with use – so it is not ideal for heavy-duty cutting
- 💬 What the community says
- „It’s very sharp and durable. The scale color has grown on me big time too… I don’t care to upgrade it.“

- Although Sprint versions sometimes draw criticism over stricter quality control, most users appreciate the performance, sharpness, and unique design.
Maintenance and care

Care for the locking bar so the TiCN does not wear off
