The Kizer Mithril Folding Knife is built for users who demand premium materials, confident handling, and dependable cutting performance in a modern everyday carry. Designed by L.F., this knife blends bold aesthetics with practical engineering, resulting in a tool that feels just as capable on the job as it looks in the pocket. With an overall length of 8.14 inches, the Mithril offers a full, commanding profile while remaining well-balanced and easy to carry.
The 3.53-inch tanto blade is crafted from high-performance M390 steel, heat treated to a hardness of 59–60 HRC for excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. This steel choice ensures the blade holds a sharp edge through repeated use while staying resilient under pressure. The compound grind enhances cutting efficiency while reinforcing the tanto tip for piercing strength and durability. Finished with a hand-brushed surface and DLC Ultra coating, the blade resists wear and corrosion while delivering a refined, hard-use appearance.
Quick, controlled deployment comes courtesy of the thumb disk opener, allowing smooth one-handed operation when timing matters. The button lock provides a strong, secure lockup while maintaining easy disengagement, giving you confidence during demanding cuts without sacrificing convenience. At 0.138 inches thick, the blade delivers reassuring strength without feeling bulky or overbuilt.
The handle combines DLC Ultra-coated titanium with lightweight carbon fiber, striking a balance between rigidity, comfort, and reduced weight. Measuring 4.61 inches long, it fits naturally in the hand and offers solid control during extended cutting tasks. The black, green, and gold color scheme adds depth and character without being flashy, giving the Mithril a distinctive look that still feels purpose-driven.
Weighing in at just 4.02 ounces, the Kizer Mithril carries comfortably while retaining the solid feel expected from a premium folding knife. Every detail, from materials to mechanics, reflects Kizer Cutlery’s commitment to quality and performance. This is a knife built for those who want reliability, refined design, and everyday practicality in one well-executed package.
Premium M390 steel, bold titanium and carbon fiber, and a hard-use tanto blade—built to perform and stand out, available at SMKW.
