The LionSteel KUR Green is a folding knife that delivers serious strength and refined Italian craftsmanship in a clean, modern package. Built for users who appreciate dependable performance with a touch of distinctive style, this knife balances rugged construction with smooth operation and thoughtful design. It’s a tool that feels ready for real work while still offering the fit and finish expected from LionSteel.
At the center of the KUR is an 87 mm (3.43-inch) drop point blade crafted from Sleipner steel, a high-performance tool steel known for its outstanding toughness and excellent edge retention. This steel choice gives the blade the resilience needed for demanding cutting tasks while maintaining a sharp, reliable edge. The blade’s substantial 4.5 mm thickness adds confidence and strength, making it feel solid and capable in hand. Finished in black with a PVD coating and stonewashed treatment, the blade has a low-glare, wear-resistant surface that enhances durability while giving the knife a refined, hard-use look.
Opening the KUR is quick and controlled thanks to the blade flipper, which provides smooth, consistent deployment with a satisfying action. The knife locks securely using a liner lock, offering dependable strength and safe one-handed operation. This locking system is proven, simple, and well suited for a knife designed to see regular use, giving you confidence every time the blade is engaged.
The green G-10 handle adds a distinctive look while delivering durability and grip you can rely on. G-10 is known for its resistance to moisture, temperature changes, and wear, making it an excellent material for a hard-working folding knife. The green color gives the KUR a bold yet practical appearance that stands out without being over the top. Ergonomic shaping allows the handle to sit comfortably in the hand, providing a secure grip during extended cutting tasks. The textured surface offers traction without feeling aggressive, ensuring comfort and control in a variety of conditions.
With a closed length of 123 mm (4.84 inches), the KUR is compact enough to carry comfortably while still offering a substantial feel when open. Its overall length of 210 mm (8.27 inches) provides excellent reach and control, making it versatile enough for everyday tasks and more demanding jobs. Weighing 158 grams (5.57 ounces), the knife feels solid and well balanced without being cumbersome, reinforcing its role as a dependable companion.
Every detail of the LionSteel KUR Green reflects a focus on durability, usability, and refined design. From the robust blade geometry to the smooth flipper action and the comfortable G-10 handle, it’s a knife built to perform consistently and look good doing it.
