Toor Knives ultimate goal is to always move forward and innovate...and that's just what they are doing!
For the last two years the team worked to develop and fine tune their Folding Series knives. Since first introducing the folders in 2020, they have relentlessly reworked, engineered, and redeveloped them from the initial, basic designs into what they are today...the Chasm XLT folding knife!
The Chasm was originally designed as a small footprint pocketknife with the ability to tackle heavy tasks. During the first year of production, they noticed an overwhelming demand for the Tanto blade variation, and with this feedback in mind they set out to make a few substantial improvements to the design.The most notable upgrade to the new Chasm XLT is the overall thickness of the blade – it has almost doubled to a whopping 0.2" thick! This allows for much more mass in the steel at the tip giving it improved strength.
Next, Toor introduced a billet titanium milled clip, which offers substantially more strength than our previous bent clips. The new clips are machined from 6al-4v titanium, also with a starting thickness at over 0.2" thick, which is plenty of titanium for the clip to last a lifetime! Additionally, a lockbar overtravel screw was added, which prevents stress that could ultimately lead to lockup failures. This lockbar screw is custom machined in-house at Toor Knives and made from titanium like the rest of the hardware.
The new Chasm XLT also offers an innovative thumb stud design with a smooth tapered finish. The lockup action has been improved on the knife, and the open stop position is held secure by the titanium thumb studs. To ensure maximum thread retention on the thumb studs, a T8 Torx driver head was added to allow for tightening. A G10 backspacer with a lanyard hole was added to assist with the overall rigidity of the frame, and the top of the G10 backspacer is machined with jimping notches for extra grip in the palm.
Every Chasm XLT features a Black Oxide blade finish on CPM 154 steel and textured G10 show-side scale.
