CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Medford Viceroy is a precision-engineered butterfly knife designed for serious users who demand strength, balance, and reliability. At its core is a 4.85" CPM® S45VN drop point blade, built to handle demanding tasks while maintaining exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance. The blade’s 0.66" width and 0.125" thickness deliver predictable cutting performance and confidence under pressure, while its tumbled finish provides a rugged, understated look that resists showing wear and tear.
The handles are crafted from 6Al-4V titanium with a striking black finish and silver flats, combining durability with a distinctive, professional appearance. Measuring 5.56" long, 1.17" wide, and 0.5" thick, the handles provide a solid, comfortable grip without unnecessary bulk. At less than 4.1 ounces, the knife feels lightweight and responsive in the hand, allowing for precise, controlled flipping while maintaining a substantial, balanced feel. When open, the overall length reaches 10.4", a design that maximizes cutting leverage and control without compromising maneuverability.
This is a latch-less balisong built for smooth, reliable action. Medford equips the Viceroy with Zen pins, custom bushings, and a Chaplin groove, all engineered to provide fluid, consistent flips and near-silent closure. Black hardware complements the handle’s aesthetic, giving the knife a sleek, tactical presence that’s as at home in serious fieldwork as it is in a collector’s case.
Every aspect of the Viceroy has been carefully considered for performance. The drop point blade profile is versatile for both controlled slicing and piercing tasks, and its robust geometry ensures durability under heavy use. The tumbled blade and handle finish will develop character over time, aging gracefully and resisting superficial scratches while maintaining its rugged appeal.
The Viceroy ships ready to perform and built to endure, proudly manufactured in the USA. It also comes with a durable zippered pouch for secure storage and transport, keeping the knife protected whether you’re carrying it in a pack or stashing it in a kit. This is not just a display piece—it’s a precision instrument built for real-world use, whether you’re flipping for skill or cutting for necessity. It’s engineered to excel in motion, handling, and dependability. Flip with precision and power—the Medford Viceroy with S45VN blade, 6Al-4V titanium handles, black and silver accents, available at SMKW.
