The Kizer Nightjar Fixed Blade is a compact cutting tool built for precision, durability, and everyday practicality. Its streamlined profile and modern materials make it a dependable companion whether you're tackling daily tasks, working around the shop, or heading outdoors.
The knife features a 2.8-inch sheepsfoot blade crafted from AUS-10A stainless steel, a steel known for its solid edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The blade sports a rugged black PVD coating paired with a stonewashed finish, giving it a distinctive two-tone look while helping hide the marks that come from real-world use. The sheepsfoot profile provides excellent control and a strong cutting edge, making it especially effective for utility cuts and detail work. An oversized thumb hole cutout in the blade adds visual appeal and allows for a natural indexing point when gripping the knife.
The handle is built from black Norplex Ultrex Micarta, a tough composite material designed to handle hard use while maintaining a comfortable grip. Its subtle texture provides a secure hold in a variety of conditions, and the cutout hardware adds a modern touch while helping reduce overall weight. The handle’s compact shape fits naturally in the hand, giving the knife excellent control despite its smaller size.
With an overall length of 5.74 inches and a weight of just 2.8 ounces, the Nightjar is easy to carry and quick to deploy when a reliable fixed blade is needed. Its balanced design keeps it lightweight while still delivering the strength and stability you expect from a fixed blade knife.
