CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Medford Smooth Criminal Flipper with a DLC‑coated S45VN stainless steel blade is built for those who demand the ultimate in strength, corrosion resistance, and tactical style. This high‑performance blade steel holds an edge longer under heavy use and, paired with the deep, matte finish of the DLC coating, offers exceptional durability while reducing glare. At 3" and .15" thick, the blade delivers precise cutting power while retaining rugged toughness for demanding tasks.
The flamed tsunami handle is a striking example of craftsmanship and function. Machined from premium aluminum, it’s anodized in a swirling flame pattern that’s as distinctive as it is durable. Paired with matching flamed hardware and a DLC‑coated pocket clip, the handle delivers both an aggressive aesthetic and ergonomic performance. The flipper deployment and button lock mechanism work in perfect harmony, giving you fast, confident access when every second counts.
Every detail of this version of the Smooth Criminal reflects Medford Knife & Tool’s commitment to precision engineering. The combination of S45VN steel, DLC coating, and premium handle finishes makes this a knife built for collectors and professionals alike. It’s rugged enough for field use, refined enough to stand out in any collection.
