The Demko Knives AD20.5 Shark Foot Black brings precision engineering and rugged utility together in a folding knife designed for serious everyday carry. Created by Andrew Demko, one of the most innovative minds in modern knife design, this manual folder is built to perform and made to last. With a 2.87” CPM 20CV stainless steel shark foot blade, it offers outstanding edge retention, exceptional wear resistance, and top-tier corrosion protection. The satin finish adds a sleek, professional look while enhancing slicing performance. Compact yet highly capable, this blade is ready for everything from precise cutting tasks to hard use in demanding environments.
Opening is intuitive and smooth, thanks to both a thumb hole and ambidextrous thumb studs. Whether you prefer a controlled deployment or a fast flick, the blade rides on ball bearings around the pivot pin, delivering effortless action with each use. At the core of this knife is Demko’s innovative Shark Lock—a robust locking mechanism known for its strength and ease of use. Positioned along the spine, the Shark Lock allows safe one-handed operation while keeping your fingers clear of the blade’s path. It’s a feature that knife enthusiasts praise for its reliability and satisfying feel.
The black G-10 handle offers an ideal blend of durability and comfort. Lightweight and tough, G-10 provides excellent grip even in wet or slippery conditions. Steel liners reinforce the handle’s structure, giving you confidence in its strength without adding unnecessary weight. At 4.63” closed and 7.5” overall, the AD20.5 Shark Foot Black delivers a solid, full-hand feel while remaining easy to carry and discreet in your pocket. Weighing just 3.65 oz., it’s light enough for all-day carry without sacrificing a sense of substance.
Thoughtful details make this knife a versatile companion. The right-hand, tip-up pocket clip keeps the knife securely in place and ready for action, while an included left-hand clip ensures southpaws can enjoy the same convenience. A lanyard hole offers yet another option for carry or customization, making the AD20.5 as adaptable as it is reliable. With a .12” blade thickness, it strikes a perfect balance between slicing precision and structural integrity.
