DPx HIT Cutter - StonewashedAtSHOT Show 2014;DPx Gear introduced a survival knife line called the DPx HIT (Handle Inversion Tool) with an integral pivoting blade guard that forms the handle. This patent pending concept is called DPx Centric and will part of new line of knives starting with an action-oriented "DPx Hit Cutter; and followed shortly thereafter by the "DPx HIT Skinner". The DPx Centric system uses a rugged carabiner and an innovated rotating, locking patent pending edge protector. That means there is no need for a bulky or heavy sheath since the blade edge is revealed with a flick of a finger as the guard smoothly becomes the handle. When not in use the guard snaps back and locks due to the clever DPx Centric design created by Robert Young Pelton. The DPx HIT is constructed of martensitic CPM S35-VN heat treated steel from Crucible Industries
