Griffin X Series Olive – Stonewash 3.5in Plain Belt Satin Drop Point GRIFFXSERIESBSLSWOMI

The Griffin X Series Olive & Stonewash brings together refined performance and natural-inspired design, delivering a knife that’s both capable and visually distinctive. Designed by Keith Griffin and manufactured by Bestech, this folder reflects a modern approach to craftsmanship, blending premium materials with thoughtful engineering. With an overall length of 8.37 inches, it offers a balanced, streamlined profile that feels substantial in hand while remaining comfortable to carry throughout the day.

At the center of this knife is a 3.5-inch blade crafted from CPM MagnaCut stainless steel, a high-performance material known for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. This advanced steel ensures the blade holds up to repeated use while maintaining a sharp, reliable edge. The hollow grind enhances slicing efficiency, allowing for smooth, controlled cuts with minimal resistance. Its drop point shape provides versatility for a wide range of tasks, while the belt satin finish gives the blade a clean, refined appearance that highlights its precision grind.

The handle combines durability with a warm, organic aesthetic. Constructed from titanium with a stonewash finish, it offers impressive strength without adding unnecessary weight, keeping the knife at just 3.37 ounces. The olive Micarta inlay adds both visual depth and tactile comfort, creating a subtle contrast against the titanium frame. Micarta’s natural texture enhances grip and develops character over time, giving the knife a unique feel that evolves with use. The ergonomic design ensures a secure, comfortable hold, making it well-suited for extended handling.

Deployment is smooth and intuitive thanks to the front flipper mechanism. Supported by ceramic bearings, the blade opens with a crisp, fluid action that feels precise and consistent. A steel detent contributes to the knife’s responsive deployment, delivering a satisfying snap with every opening. Once deployed, the bolster lock engages securely, reinforced with a stainless steel insert for added durability and long-term reliability.

Attention to detail is evident throughout the build. Titanium T8 hardware ensures strength and ease of maintenance, while the titanium back spacer enhances the knife’s structural integrity and clean design. The milled titanium pocket clip is configured for tip-up carry, keeping the knife secure and easily accessible whenever it’s needed. A hidden lanyard slot offers additional carry versatility without interrupting the knife’s streamlined appearance.

The Griffin X Series Olive & Stonewash stands out as a well-crafted folder that merges modern performance with a natural, understated style. It’s built to perform reliably while offering a distinctive look that sets it apart from the ordinary.
