McGlaun Designs Damascus Clever Girl SMKW Exclusive AGDCG

The McGlaun Designs Damascus Clever Girl SMKW Exclusive is a striking blend of artisan craftsmanship, premium materials, and proven field design. Personally handmade by Austin McGlaun—the mind behind the CRKT Clever Girl series—this knife is a fully custom creation, built exclusively for Smoky Mountain Knife Works. Every detail reflects McGlaun’s dedication to making a blade that’s both beautiful and brutally capable in real-world use.

Its 4.6" upswept Damascus steel blade is forged by Alabama Damascus, combining 1075, 1095, 15N20, and O1 tool steels into a layered pattern that’s as visually captivating as it is functional. The Damascus construction gives the blade an exceptional balance of toughness, edge retention, and cutting power, while the upswept profile provides excellent slicing efficiency and a keen, controllable tip. At .16" thick, it has the durability to handle demanding tasks without sacrificing precision.

The full-tang construction ensures strength from tip to pommel, making it a reliable choice for both outdoor and tactical applications. Textured black G-10 handle scales offer a secure grip in any conditions, and the strategically placed cutouts reduce weight while adding a distinctive style. A lanyard hole at the rear of the handle provides extra carry and retention options for those who work in challenging environments.

At 10.13" overall and 6.3oz, the Clever Girl strikes a balance between substantial presence and comfortable handling. It comes with a custom-fitted Kydex sheath for secure retention and fast deployment. Each sheath is individually made, resulting in slight variations in shape and clip color—making every package as unique as the knife it holds. The titanium sheath clip, designed by Mummert Knives, offers a durable, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant mounting solution, ready for belt or gear attachment.

This SMKW-exclusive collaboration represents the pinnacle of the Clever Girl concept: a fixed blade with combat-ready ergonomics, precision craftsmanship, and materials chosen for both performance and aesthetics. Whether it’s part of your field kit, a centerpiece in your collection, or a trusted companion in high-stakes work, the McGlaun Designs Damascus Clever Girl delivers. Order it today from SMKW!
