CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESWhen EIKONIC Knives joined forces with Ramon Chavez, the result was destined to be more than just a functional blade—it became a modern tribute to the rugged tools that once rode the belts of hard-working ranch hands. The RCK9 folding knife stands as a refined evolution of that legacy. It blends the unmistakable silhouette of a Chavez design with the practical demands of everyday carry, delivering a knife that feels as ready for the job site as it does your pocket.
At the heart of the RCK9 is a 3-inch D2 tool steel drop point blade. Tough, reliable, and finished in a subtle stonewash, this blade offers excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for hard daily use. The manual thumb studs operates smoothly on ceramic ball bearings, providing the user with a fast and responsive opening without the need for springs or assistance. Whether you're slicing rope, opening boxes, or handling camp chores, the RCK9 gives you confidence with every cut.
The handle scales are crafted from textured olive G-10—a lightweight yet durable material that enhances grip without adding bulk. At just 3.8 ounces and 4.03 inches closed, the RCK9 is a compact tool that disappears in the pocket but delivers full-size performance in hand. The liner lock construction ensures a secure blade lockup, while the stainless steel deep-carry pocket clip keeps the knife discreet and accessible.
What sets the RCK9 apart is the balance it strikes between modern build quality and timeless design inspiration. It's a working knife at its core, but one that doesn't sacrifice visual appeal or smooth handling. From its precise machining to its comfortable ergonomics, every detail reflects EIKONIC’s dedication to functional craftsmanship—and Ramon Chavez’s unmistakable design DNA.
If you’re the kind of user who respects tradition but demands performance, the RCK9 brings both to the table. Whether you’re a collector, tradesman, or someone who simply appreciates well-made gear, this knife offers everyday reliability with a story worth carrying.
