Every detail of the Vector has been overhauled for the 496. The handle is contoured OD Green G-10 with a milled aluminum bolster. It rides on a deep-carry clip with a black oxide finish. Most of all, the blade has been crafted from CPM 20CV premium stainless with a compound grind that provides a keen hollow grind on the main edge and a flat ground wedge tip for added strength.
