The Case Marilla Mission Series Folding Knife BLK/BLK S35VN Blade Carbon Fiber Handle brings together modern performance, premium materials, and the trusted craftsmanship of Case XX in a sleek everyday carry folder. As part of Case's Modern Everyday Carry collection, the Marilla Mission Series represents an exciting new direction for the brand, combining lightweight construction with advanced materials and smooth one-handed operation. Proudly crafted in Bradford, Pennsylvania, this American-made folder is built for users who want a refined EDC knife with the strength and reliability to handle everyday challenges.
The Marilla features a 3.4-inch drop point blade crafted from CPM S35VN stainless steel, a premium blade material known for its excellent balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Designed for dependable performance, S35VN maintains a sharp edge through extended use while providing the durability needed for demanding cutting tasks. The black blade finish delivers a sleek, tactical appearance while helping reduce glare and adding another layer of surface protection. The versatile drop point profile offers excellent control, a strong cutting edge, and a practical design suited for everything from everyday utility work to outdoor applications.
Fast and reliable deployment comes from the integrated flipper tab and precision ball bearing pivot system. With a simple flick of your index finger, the blade opens smoothly and quickly, while the sturdy frame lock secures it firmly in the open position. This dependable locking mechanism provides confidence during use, making the Marilla Mission Series a capable companion for opening packages, cutting materials, preparing gear, and handling daily tasks.
The lightweight carbon fiber handle provides an exceptional combination of strength, durability, and style. Known for its rigidity and impressive weight savings, carbon fiber keeps the knife comfortable for all-day carry while maintaining a premium feel in hand. Measuring 4.75 inches closed and weighing just 3.6 ounces, the Marilla offers excellent portability without sacrificing performance. The sleek black carbon fiber construction complements the black blade finish for a clean, refined appearance that stands out while remaining practical. A reversible deep-carry steel pocket clip allows for secure, discreet carry and accommodates both left- and right-handed users.
Named after a local spring that has long been a favorite destination for exploration in the Bradford, Pennsylvania area, the Marilla reflects the connection between Case craftsmanship and the landscapes that inspire its designs. As part of the Mission Series, this Marilla combines Case's American-made heritage with modern materials and contemporary EDC performance. Every component, from the CPM S35VN blade steel to the carbon fiber handle and smooth ball bearing action, showcases Case's dedication to producing innovative American-made knives. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, the Marilla Mission Series is designed to provide years of reliable everyday performance.
