The Gahagan Customs SMKW Exclusive Cairn is a compact EDC fixed blade that brings everyday functionality, custom craftsmanship, and a seriously fun PB&J-inspired design together in one unique package. Born from the Alviss EDC, the Cairn maintains the versatile, lightweight design of its predecessor while adding a practical sheepsfoot blade. Measuring 6.5 inches overall with a 3-inch blade and weighing just 3.8 ounces, it's easy to carry and ready for the everyday tasks that come its way.
The bronze peanut butter-finished 80CRV2 blade measures .165 inches thick and provides a rugged cutting platform in a compact package. The custom peanut butter and jelly G-10 handle features a distinctive color combination with a subtle fade throughout the scales, giving each knife its own unique appearance. Results may vary, making every Cairn slightly different from the next. The textured G-10 provides a secure grip while adding plenty of personality to this exclusive design.
Look closer and you'll find even more custom touches. The handle features UV-reactive liners that add a hidden detail you'll appreciate when the lights go down. PB&J models are serialized, giving this SMKW Exclusive added collectible appeal. A custom banana lanyard that matches the handle completes the playful theme and gives the Cairn an unmistakable character. A black Kydex retention sheath is included to provide secure carry and protect the blade when it's not in use. Also, this knife comes with a Gahagan velcro patch.
Gahagan Customs is built around the craftsmanship and experience of knifemaker Kyle Gahagan. Kyle developed his passion for knifemaking at an early age before serving with the 1st Ranger Battalion and completing tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. After his military service, he returned to knifemaking in the early 2000s, turning a garage hobby into a respected family business focused on rugged, dependable knives. Kyle earned his ABS Journeyman Smith rating at the 2015 Blade Show in Atlanta and appeared on Forged in Fire in 2016. His work has also been featured in Blade Magazine and Knife Magazine.
This SMKW Exclusive Cairn combines Gahagan Customs' practical approach to knife design with a distinctive colorway and plenty of personality. From the bronze peanut butter blade and custom PB&J G-10 to the UV-reactive liners and banana lanyard, every detail makes this Cairn stand out. Whether you're looking for a capable EDC fixed blade or a unique addition to your collection, this exclusive was made to get noticed.
