The Kizer Skinner Black Micarta folding knife brings together sleek function and rugged style, making it a reliable choice for anyone who takes their everyday carry seriously. Crafted with attention to detail and built for real-world use, this knife delivers high-end performance in a compact, pocket-friendly package.
At the heart of this knife is a 3.32-inch reverse tanto blade made from Nitro-V stainless steel. Known for its strength, edge retention, and corrosion resistance, Nitro-V is a modern steel that stands up to demanding use without sacrificing precision. Whether you're opening packages, slicing rope, or handling more detailed work, this blade is ready to go. The stonewash finish adds a touch of character while helping to mask wear from frequent use, making it as practical as it is attractive.
The reverse tanto shape adds extra versatility, offering the strong tip of a tanto with more usable belly for slicing. It’s a go-to blade shape for anyone who needs a tool that balances strength and finesse. With the intuitive blade flipper, deployment is quick and smooth, letting you open it one-handed without breaking your stride. A reliable linerlock mechanism keeps the blade secure while you work and folds away safely when you’re done.
The handle is made of black Micarta, a time-tested material favored by knife users for its combination of durability and tactile grip. It feels natural in the hand and only gets better with use, developing a subtle patina over time that gives it a custom-worn character. At 4.68 inches closed and just 0.11 inches in blade thickness, the Skinner strikes the right balance between pocketability and solid, full-hand comfort.
A tip-up pocket clip rounds out the design, ensuring the knife stays secure and accessible whether clipped to your jeans, work pants, or pack. It rides deep enough to stay discreet but draws easily when needed. With a total open length of 8 inches, the Kizer Skinner Black Micarta is perfectly sized for daily use without ever feeling bulky or overbuilt.
From the solid construction to the fine materials, this manual folder is clearly designed with everyday carry in mind. It has all the right touches to become a trusted part of your daily gear—tough enough for outdoor tasks, precise enough for around-the-house projects, and stylish enough to make an impression every time you reach for it.
