From everyday cutting chores to more demanding tasks, the TI Manu is designed to deliver reliable performance while maintaining a comfortable, balanced feel in hand.
The 3.25-inch modified drop point blade is crafted from premium CPM S90V stainless steel, a high-performance steel known for its outstanding edge retention and wear resistance. Its flat grind provides an efficient cutting profile, making it well suited for a variety of everyday applications. Dual thumb studs offer convenient, ambidextrous access to the blade, allowing for smooth, controlled deployment whenever you need it. With a blade thickness of 0.14 inches, the TI Manu offers a sturdy balance of strength and cutting capability.
The handle is constructed from solid Grade 5 titanium, delivering impressive strength and durability with a clean, modern appearance. Its thoughtfully engineered two-screw design keeps the hardware configuration streamlined, utilizing one main pivot screw and one pocket clip screw. The reversible deep-carry pocket clip is crafted from Grade 4 titanium, providing a durable and practical carry solution for either pocket orientation.
One of the standout features of the TI Manu is its adaptable pivot system. Designed to accommodate both washers and ball bearings, this folding knife gives you the flexibility to customize its action to suit your preferences. Both pivot options are included, with washers factory installed, so you can enjoy the knife right out of the box or switch to the bearing system when desired. This attention to detail makes the TI Manu an excellent choice for those who appreciate customization and precision mechanical design.
Measuring 7.5 inches overall with a closed length of 4.25 inches, the TI Manu offers a capable cutting tool in a convenient folding design. Weighing 3.86 ounces, it provides a solid feel without becoming overly cumbersome for everyday carry.
