Cudeman Athenea G10 Orange (345-J): A Goddess's Name, Forged with the Temper of Wisdom and Sharpened for Victory

The Cudeman Athenea (345-J) has been designed for those who understand that a cutting tool must be as reliable as it is easy to locate in any circumstance. This knife stands out for its fluid design and a construction that prioritizes absolute control, making it an exceptional choice for both everyday use (EDC) and outdoor activities where equipment visibility is a matter of safety.

Why this Cudeman is right for you

  • Extreme visibility: The use of orange G10 allows the knife to be located instantly if it falls in dense vegetation or low light environments.
  • Reliable mechanical security: Its back-lock system provides a firm blade anchor, eliminating any risk of accidental closing during use.
  • Power in a compact format: Despite its contained dimensions, its 3.0 mm blade thickness offers structural robustness that inspires confidence in every cut.
  • Intuitive ergonomics: The 10.5 cm handle design has been studied to fit naturally in the palm of the hand, reducing fatigue in repetitive tasks.

Steel and edge performance

At the heart of the Athenea is Böhler N690Co steel, a premium alloy that reaches a hardness of 60/61 HRc thanks to the addition of cobalt. This material is renowned in high-end cutlery for its extraordinary edge retention and resistance to environmental corrosion. From this tool, you can expect an aggressive and long-lasting cut.

Construction and resistance

Manufactured entirely in our facilities, this model features a satin finish that minimizes reflections and improves blade cleaning. Its structure is reinforced by a steel liner lock, guaranteeing a solid and play-free connection between the components. Its blade is adjusted by an Allen screw with an internal brass bushing. Although its resistance is high, its design is optimized for precision cutting and should not be used for prying to protect the pivot axis and maintain its complete integrity.

Handle and control in real conditions

The handle is made of orange G10 with a black spacer that highlights its technical profile. G10 is a high-density synthetic material that stands out for its invulnerability to moisture, oils, or sudden temperature changes. Its texture ensures a firm grip even with wet hands or when wearing gloves, while the ergonomic design allows for superior directional control of the drop-point tip.

Sheath and portability

To adapt to your equipment needs, we offer this model in two configurations. If you prefer to carry your knife in your pocket, collect it in a display case, or carry it in its sheath hanging from your belt, you can choose between:

  • 345-J: Knife without sheath for pocket carry
  • 345-JF: Knife with black sheath with orange stitching matching the G10 (sheath 604-NN)

Use scenarios

  • Outdoor Activities: Ideal for hiking and camping, where its orange color prevents accidental loss on the ground.
  • Everyday Carry (EDC): A comfortable tool in size but powerful in performance, capable of solving any daily cutting need.
  • Emergency Situations: Its high visibility and ease of opening make it a reliable option for safety or rescue kits.

Care and maintenance

  • When using G10, the handle is extremely resistant; simply keep the piece in a dry place when not in use.
  • After contact with humid environments, clean the blade with a soft cloth to preserve the satin finish of the steel.
  • Periodically apply a drop of light oil to the knife's pivot to ensure that the back-lock deployment remains fluid and precise.
  • Keep the locking mechanism free of dirt or debris to ensure a consistently audible and firm safety engagement.

The Cudeman Athenea (345-J) is a comfortable, reliable, technical tool designed to last, merging one of the best steels with the orange G10 of its handle, creating a product worthy of collecting or daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Popular questions from our customers


  • All Cudeman products are designed and manufactured entirely in Albacete, Spain. The brand has over 38 years of experience, combining traditional Albacete cutlery craftsmanship with the latest technologies (such as laser cutting and CNC machining). When you buy a Cudeman, you are acquiring a product with a designation of origin that guarantees quality and know-how.

  • 1. Premium Steels: Böhler N695 / N690Co

    These are the benchmark steels in our high-end range. Böhler is synonymous with purity and Austrian technology.

    • Properties: High hardness (58/61 HRC), excellent corrosion resistance, and superior edge retention thanks to their high chromium and cobalt content (in the case of N690Co).
    • Ideal use: Extreme survival and bushcraft knives (like the famous MT series or the Green Beret), designed to withstand intensive use without losing their edge.

    2. The Gold Standard: Molybdenum Vanadium (MoVa)

    The quintessential steel of Spanish cutlery, valued for its great structural balance.

    • Properties: Reaches a hardness of 54/56 HRC. Its greatest virtue is its toughness (impact resistance) and ease of re-sharpening in the field, even with basic stones.
    • Ideal use: Hunting, finishing, and general-purpose knives. It's the all-terrain steel that never fails in hunting activities.

    3. Swedish Precision: Sandvik 12C27 / 14C28N

    Very fine-grained stainless steels produced in Sweden, ideal for those seeking a "laser" edge.

    • Properties: 14C28N, in particular, offers a masterful balance between hardness (57/59 HRC) and corrosion resistance. It allows for very sharp edges that are resistant to micro-fractures.
    • Ideal use: High-end folding knives (EDC), adventure cutlery, and pieces that require a clean and precise cut.

    4. Tactical Resistance: 420 Stainless Steel

    A very elastic steel resistant to external agents, used in specific high-impact pieces.

    • Properties: Lower hardness than the previous ones (50/53 HRC), which makes it extremely resistant to breakage under torsion or impact. It is virtually immune to oxidation.
    • Ideal use: Throwing knives, diving tools, and low-maintenance tactical cutlery.

  • A high-quality knife is a tool for life, but its longevity depends on maintenance, especially when combining technical steels with natural materials in the handles.

    1. Cleaning and Drying (Crucial for natural materials)

    • Hand washing: Clean the blade and handle with warm water and neutral soap. Never use a dishwasher, as extreme heat and chemical detergents are lethal to steel and wood.
    • Attention to porosity: If your Cudeman has wood, antler, or bone scales, avoid submerging them or leaving them to soak. These materials are porous; moisture can cause them to swell, crack, or separate from the knife's chassis.
    • Immediate drying: Dry the entire piece with a soft cloth immediately after washing. Make sure no moisture remains in the rivet area or joints.

    2. Lubrication and Protection

    • The Blade: If you are going to store the knife, apply a thin layer of mineral oil (or camellia oil) to the steel. This creates a hydrophobic barrier against environmental moisture, which is vital even for stainless steels.
    • The Handle: For natural wood handles, it is advisable to occasionally apply a little linseed oil or beeswax. This nourishes the material, seals the pores, and prevents it from drying out or accidentally absorbing water.

    3. Storage and Leather Sheaths

    • Leather is organic: Leather sheaths are hygroscopic (they absorb moisture). Do not store the knife inside its sheath for prolonged periods of inactivity, as the leather's tanning and retained moisture can cause oxidation pitting on the steel.
    • Sheath maintenance: Hydrate the leather regularly with horse grease or specific creams. A flexible and nourished sheath better protects your tool and prevents the leather from cracking over time.

    Golden rule: A Cudeman knife is not ruined by use, but by neglect. Clean, dry, and store separately if you are not going to use it soon.

  • Cudeman offers a lifetime warranty against any manufacturing or material defects.

    Important note: The warranty does not cover natural wear and tear from use, nor damage caused by misuse of the tool (such as extreme batoning with models not designed for it, throwing the knife, or using it as a lever).
    Items made with natural materials (woods, antlers) or special resins (Juma) may show inherent differences in grain and color compared to the photographs. These aesthetic variations do not constitute a manufacturing defect and are therefore not covered by the warranty or eligible for return.
