Case Slant Bolster Black Lava Corelon Medium Stockman Folding Knife CAS9318BKL

The Case Slant Bolster Black Lava Corelon Medium Stockman Folding Knife is a bold take on one of the most respected traditional pocketknife patterns ever made. Built on the reliable Medium Stockman frame, this knife combines the trusted performance of Case craftsmanship with a striking modern handle material and a collectible limited-edition blade etch. It’s a knife that’s equally at home riding in your pocket for everyday tasks or standing out as a centerpiece in a serious collection.

At the core of this knife is the classic Stockman trio of blades, each crafted from mirror polished Tru-Sharp surgical steel. Known for its corrosion resistance, dependable edge retention, and ease of sharpening, Tru-Sharp steel has long been a favorite for practical working knives. The primary blade is a 2.62 inch clip point, designed with a fine tip that allows for precise cuts and detailed work. Its curved edge makes it equally capable when it comes to slicing and general utility tasks. This blade is further distinguished by a Premier Edition “1 of 2500 Black Lava” etch, marking it as part of a limited production run that adds lasting collector appeal.

Supporting the clip blade are two traditional companions that give the Stockman pattern its versatility. The 1.87 inch spey blade features a broad cutting edge and rounded tip that’s excellent for smooth slicing and controlled cuts. Originally developed for farm and ranch tasks, the spey blade remains a dependable tool for everyday work. The 1.75 inch sheepsfoot blade offers a straight cutting edge that excels at push cuts and precise trimming jobs. All three blades open with classic nail nicks and operate on a smooth slipjoint mechanism that reflects Case’s dedication to time-honored knife making.

The handle showcases dramatic Black Lava Corelon, a material known for its layered depth and rich, swirling patterns that resemble flowing molten rock. The dark tones and shimmering textures give the knife a rugged yet refined look, ensuring that no two handles appear exactly alike. Framing the handle are polished slanted nickel silver bolsters that add both strength and distinctive styling, setting this model apart from more traditional Stockman designs. Nickel silver pins secure the scales firmly in place, and the classic Case shield inlay completes the look with a mark of authenticity.

Measuring 3.62 inches closed, the Medium Stockman offers a comfortable balance between pocket-friendly size and practical usability. It’s large enough to handle real cutting work yet compact enough to carry without noticing it until you need it. With its limited-edition blade etch, dramatic Corelon handle, and dependable three-blade design, this knife represents a perfect blend of traditional function and standout style.
