Medford Viceroy Butterfly Knife S45VN Drop Point Blade Tumbled Handle Blue Hardware MK2164TD-01TM-T2Q3-Q4

The Medford Viceroy is a purpose-built butterfly knife that blends brute durability with surgical precision. At its core is a 4.85" CPM® S45VN drop point blade with a tumbled finish that hides wear and gives the blade a lived-in, mission-ready look. The blade’s 0.66" width and 0.125" thickness deliver reliable cutting geometry and confidence under load, while S45VN’s edge retention and corrosion resistance mean the Viceroy will keep performing day after day.

The handles are machined from 6Al4V titanium and finished to match the blade’s tumble for a cohesive, no-nonsense aesthetic. At 5.56" long, 1.17" wide and 0.5" thick, the handles provide a solid purchase without excess bulk. Medford’s material choice and careful sizing keep the overall weight under 4.1 ounces, so the Viceroy feels fast and responsive in flicks and manipulations while staying substantial enough to trust in the field. The overall length when open is 10.4", and that exact balance of scale and blade length is deliberate — built for both control and decisive cutting.

This is a latch-less balisong engineered for smooth, dependable action. Medford fits the Viceroy with Zen pins, custom bushings and a Chaplin groove to produce fluid, consistent flips and a near-silent return to closed. The blue hardware provides a tasteful accent that won’t look out of place on the trail or in a display case; it’s a subtle, functional pop against the tumbled metal.

Everything about the Viceroy’s specifications was chosen for performance. The drop point profile is versatile for controlled cuts and piercing tasks, while the stout blade thickness handles demanding chores without sacrificing edge control. The tumbled finishes on both blade and handles will patina and age with use, so the knife’s character develops rather than showing superficial wear.

Medford outfits the Viceroy as a ready-to-use tool: it ships with a durable zippered pouch for secure transport and storage, so the knife travels protected whether you’re carrying it in a pack or stashing it in a kit. Made in the USA to tight tolerances, the Viceroy isn’t a fragile showpiece — it’s a precision instrument designed to take real work and still look purposeful on display.

The Medford Viceroy—tumbled CPM S45VN drop point blade, tumbled titanium handles with blue hardware; rugged, precision-made balisong from the USA. Tumbled, tough, and perfectly balanced—the Medford Viceroy is a butterfly knife designed to perform, available at SMKW.
