BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Euro Ops Division (EOD) is the new trademark for Pohl Force knives manufactured in Europe. As the first partner, we have chosen the well-known knife manufacturing company Lionsteel from Italy. Lionsteel is like no other company in Maniago, best known for the manufacturing of knives with modern CNC equipment. A very precise manufacturing process makes each knife a reliable companion in virtually all situations. The knives of the EOD series will always be carved out of the solid material, whether it is G-10, Micarta or titanium. No grip is produced in conventional injection molding process but only in 3D CNC milling. Thus, the manufacturing times and costs are high. The EOD series completely avoids forging in the manufacturing process of the blade. Each blade is individually laser-cut from solid steel and then ground with millimeter precision using modern grinding robots. The D2 (1.2379) steel from Germany is the one used the the DDC Series with 59 HRC hardness to reach the desired cutting performance and durability. Each knife comes with an extensive accessory package, like no other manufacturer can offer to their knives, which summarizes the sophisticated character of the new Euro Ops Division Series. To ensure quality, each EOD knife is marked with the year of manufacturing and a unique serial number. The delivery takes place in a specially designed, zip sealing pouch. With QC certificate and additional EOD sticker.
