SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Bestech Knives VK-Core Stonewash is a prime example of minimalist design meeting serious functionality. This compact fixed blade is streamlined for efficiency, engineered for durability, and crafted with a strong sense of purpose. Whether you're tackling daily tasks, heading into the field, or adding to a dependable gear lineup, the VK-Core delivers no-nonsense performance in a rugged, lightweight package.
Built from a single piece of 14C28N stainless steel, this fixed blade is made to go the distance. With a 3.19-inch Wharncliffe blade, it offers clean slicing power and exceptional control. The flat edge and fine tip make it ideal for precision work, scoring, or detailed slicing tasks. 14C28N is a high-quality stainless steel that’s known for its edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening, so you’ll spend more time putting this blade to work and less time maintaining it.
The stonewash finish gives the knife a classic, worn-in look that’s as attractive as it is practical. It hides scratches from everyday use and adds a rugged charm that’s perfect for a knife built to be used. The full tang design extends through the handle, providing solid strength and a balanced feel in hand. The tang has been skeletonized to reduce weight without compromising the structural integrity, making the VK-Core incredibly nimble for its size.
This knife weighs just 2.7 ounces and measures 7.69 inches overall, offering an ideal balance between compact carry and solid grip. The handle design is simple but effective, shaped for comfort and control. While it doesn’t include handle scales, the natural contour of the steel tang offers a secure grip, and the lanyard hole gives you the option to add paracord for extra traction or personalization.
The VK-Core Stonewash comes with a molded black Kydex sheath that keeps the knife protected and ready for deployment. It provides excellent blade retention and allows for a range of carry options. Whether you prefer to rig it to your pack or customize it with a belt clip or mounting solution, the sheath is built for adaptability and durability.
For those who appreciate a well-designed fixed blade that doesn’t add unnecessary bulk, the VK-Core is an easy choice. Its slim profile, efficient cutting edge, and all-steel construction make it perfect for everyday use, backup duty, or light field work. It’s the kind of tool you’ll reach for again and again—precise, reliable, and built with attention to every detail.
