Built for refined everyday carry with the rugged character of a Half Face Blades design, the Custom Kwaiken Folder combines premium materials, precise operation, and distinctive American craftsmanship. Proudly made in the USA, this compact folder delivers a sophisticated look without sacrificing practical cutting performance.
The 3.2” blade is crafted from CPM S45VN stainless steel and finished with a gray titanium nitride coating. Known for its excellent balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, CPM S45VN gives the Kwaiken a capable cutting edge, while the gray TiN finish adds durability and a clean, understated appearance.
An integral push button provides both opening and locking functionality, giving the manual folder a streamlined operating system. The textured grip combines richly figured Amboyna Burl with anodized gray aluminum, creating a striking contrast between natural warmth and modern industrial styling. A stainless steel deep-carry pocket clip keeps the knife positioned securely and discreetly in a pocket.
Measuring just 4.7” closed and weighing only 3.6 ounces, the Kwaiken is exceptionally well suited to everyday carry. Its compact dimensions make it easy to carry, while the premium construction gives it the substance and character of a knife designed to be appreciated as much as it’s used.
