CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESWhen precision engineering meets world-class design, you get the MKM Flame Light—a folding knife born from the collaboration between Maniago Knife Makers (MKM) of Italy and elite custom knifemaker Michael Zieba. Modeled after Zieba’s celebrated MS3 Manhattan Special, this iteration of the Flame Light brings a sleeker, more tactical edge to an already iconic design.
At the heart of the Flame Light is a striking 2.83-inch dagger-style blade made from Bohler M390 stainless steel. The sandblasted finish enhances its clean, symmetrical lines while reducing reflection—ideal for discreet use and modern EDC aesthetics. This high-performance blade steel is renowned for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ability to tackle daily tasks with precision and ease.
The frame is crafted from lightweight yet incredibly strong 6Al-4V titanium, finished in a rugged stonewash for an understated look that ages beautifully with use. The contoured titanium scales offer a smooth, ergonomic grip that feels secure in the hand and refined in the pocket. At just 1.9 ounces, the Flame Light carries effortlessly while offering a solid, confident feel when deployed.
Opening the blade is fast and fluid thanks to a ball-bearing pivot system and flipper tab, while the liner lock mechanism keeps the blade secure during use. A deep-carry pocket clip allows for discreet, tip-up carry, and a zippered nylon sheath is included for additional transport or storage options.
Whether you’re a collector, a daily user, or a professional who values premium performance in a minimalist form, the MKM Flame Light delivers with style, substance, and surgical precision. It’s more than a tool—it’s a refined piece of functional art, backed by Italian craftsmanship and world-class materials.
