The Kizer Original 2 Black is a sophisticated everyday carry folding knife that balances elegant design with high-performance functionality. Built for those who appreciate a precise, reliable tool, this knife combines thoughtful materials, a well-designed handle, and a blade profile that’s perfect for controlled, accurate cutting. At its heart is a plain edge 3.2” sheepsfoot blade made from 14C28N stainless steel. Known for its excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, 14C28N ensures this knife performs every time you need it. The satin finish gives the blade a clean, professional look while helping to resist minor scratches and wear from everyday use. The sheepsfoot blade shape provides exceptional control and precision, making it ideal for tasks that require careful, deliberate cuts while still offering a solid, functional edge for everyday work.
Opening the Original 2 Black is effortless thanks to the ambidextrous thumb studs. Whether you’re left or right-handed, you can quickly deploy the blade with a smooth flick of the thumb. The clutch lock keeps the blade securely in place when open, providing confidence and stability during use. The lock is easy to disengage for quick, one-handed closing, giving you convenience without compromising safety. Every action is precise and satisfying, making the knife a pleasure to use on a daily basis.
The handle is crafted from black Micarta, a material celebrated for its durability, stability, and excellent grip. Its subtle texture provides a secure hold even in wet or slippery conditions, and the ergonomic shape fits naturally in the hand for comfortable use over extended periods. Micarta is lightweight yet incredibly tough, making it an ideal handle material for a knife designed for everyday carry. The black color complements the satin-finished blade, giving the knife a clean, understated, and professional aesthetic that works in any setting.
For carry, the Original 2 Black features a reversible tip-up pocket clip, allowing for both left- and right-handed placement and making it easy to keep the knife accessible exactly where you want it. Its 4.11” closed length and slim profile make it ideal for pocket carry without feeling bulky, while the 7.31” overall length when open provides plenty of blade for everyday tasks. Weighing just 2.51 ounces, it’s light enough for comfortable daily carry yet feels substantial in hand, providing confidence with every cut.
This folding knife is a perfect combination of style, performance, and reliability. Its sheepsfoot blade offers precision and control, the Micarta handle provides comfort and grip, and the clutch lock ensures safety without sacrificing smooth operation.
