The Big I Design USA Cloudland Fixed Blade combines rugged American craftsmanship, premium materials, and modern engineering in a compact, versatile design built for everyday carry. Inspired by traditional bird and trout knives but reimagined for modern EDC, the Cloudland delivers the capability of a larger fixed blade with the nimble handling and convenient carry of a compact knife. Its 2.7-inch drop point blade is crafted from premium CPM MagnaCut stainless steel, offering an impressive combination of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Hardened to 63–64 HRC, this blade is built to handle demanding cutting tasks while maintaining dependable performance. Measuring 3mm thick, with a .38-inch thickness at the heel, it provides a solid balance of strength and cutting efficiency.
At 6.75 inches overall, the Cloudland features a thoughtfully designed handle that provides a comfortable, full four-finger grip without sacrificing its compact profile. The titanium handle delivers a sleek, rugged appearance while complementing the knife's premium materials and precision-built construction. Grade 5 titanium hardware adds strength and durability, while a lanyard hole integrated into the rear handle screw provides another convenient carry option. Whether you're handling everyday cutting chores, heading outdoors, or adding a dependable fixed blade to your EDC rotation, the Cloudland offers a practical combination of control, comfort, and capability.
Designed in collaboration with Big I Design's in-house designer, Mak Kelsay, an ABS Journeyman Smith, the Cloudland reflects a commitment to thoughtful engineering and quality craftsmanship. It's named after the scenic Cloudland Canyon in Tennessee, a local adventure destination that helped inspire its identity. Each knife is manufactured in-house at Big I Design's machine shop in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and made in the USA using foreign and domestic parts.
The Cloudland comes equipped with two Kydex sheaths designed for left- and right-side pocket carry, along with one titanium pocket clip, giving you flexible options for everyday carry. A 25-degree sharpening angle provides a dependable cutting edge, and Big I Design backs this fixed blade with a lifetime warranty. Combining premium MagnaCut steel, titanium construction, and American manufacturing, the USA Cloudland is ready for everyday adventures and demanding outdoor use.
