Our MT-1 Sliver is a little different from the rest of our line, it has a silver handle. The 6061-T6 aluminum handle has a clear coat on it, but it keeps its original luster. The MT1 has a far more classical design than the rest of our line, but again, the trademarked red ellipse lets you know that MANTIS stands behind it, for the life of the knife…not just the first purchaser.
