Tactical Scorpion uses CNC laser tables for all steel core cutting. Plasma cutting generates excessive heat that softens steel edges and creates a large heat-affected zone (HAZ)—leading to chipping, cracking, or shattering during use. Laser cutting produces clean, precise edges that maintain structural integrity.
