The Grissom Knife & Tool Baby Zeus Linerlock Folding Knife delivers compact power, refined design, and smooth everyday carry performance. Designed by knifemaker Frank Grissom, the Baby Zeus blends premium materials with practical engineering to create a folder that’s built for daily use while maintaining a sleek, modern profile.
Its 3.125” trailing point blade is crafted from 14C28N stainless steel, a high-performance steel prized for its corrosion resistance, dependable edge retention, and easy maintenance. The blade features a clean satin finish that highlights the sweeping lines of the trailing point profile while providing a sharp, precise cutting edge. This blade shape excels at slicing tasks and offers excellent tip control for detailed work, making it ideal for everything from opening packages to handling everyday chores. A blade flipper paired with a ceramic bearing pivot ensures quick, smooth deployment with crisp, responsive action every time the knife is opened.
A reliable linerlock mechanism secures the blade firmly during use, providing the strength and stability needed for regular cutting tasks. The handle scales are crafted from red Micarta, a durable composite material valued for its toughness and naturally grippy texture. The rich red color gives the knife a bold, distinctive look while the material itself becomes more comfortable and characterful with use. The ergonomic handle shape fits naturally in the hand, delivering excellent control during extended use. An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip keeps the knife secure and accessible for convenient carry throughout the day.
Measuring 3.75” closed, the Baby Zeus slips easily into a pocket while still offering impressive cutting capability when deployed. Every element reflects Frank Grissom’s focus on functional craftsmanship and reliable everyday performance.
