Thank you for checking out the Resouce! Good observations! The fuller can be used to open the blade. The steel is a proprietary steel belonging Artisan Cutlery, parent company of CJRB. RPM 9 is a powdered steel roughly equivalent to 440B. I considered a flipper but felt the fuller and thumb stud worked best in this design. i am glad you like it!

Ok sorry I remembered that Artisan cutlery is the parent company of them. 😱
