Halloween is creeping closer, and SMKW is already looking a little haunted. This year’s lineup goes all-in on the season, with glow-in-the-dark handles, UV-reactive artwork, graveyards, ghosts, skeletons, bats, jack-o’-lanterns, spiderwebs, and a few horror-inspired surprises lurking. Some lean playful, some feel a little more sinister, and others hide their best tricks until the lights go out. There are traditional patterns dressed up for October, modern folders covered in glowing details, and enough spooky artwork to make the whole collection feel like a haunted knife case. Whether you are looking for something fun to carry through Halloween or just want a knife with a little more personality, the 2026 lineup has plenty waiting after dark.


Bear & Son Cutlery

SMKW Exclusive Halloween 2026 Dead Rising Small Farmhand

The Bear & Son Halloween 2026 SMKW Exclusive Dead Rising Small Farmhand looks ready for the moment the graveyard comes alive. Its 2.75-inch satin-finished high-carbon steel drop point blade carries a dripping “Happy Halloween” etch, while a nail nick keeps opening simple and traditional. The 3.62-inch aluminum handle is where things get properly spooky, with a blue haunted-graveyard scene filled with tombstones, bare trees, and shadowy hands reaching out from the ground, and under UV light, the handle takes on an even eerier look. A stainless steel back lock secures the blade, while a stainless steel pocket clip handles carry. Weighing just 1.5 ounces, it is light enough to disappear into a pocket until something starts scratching at the coffin lid. Made in the USA.
