High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESRooted in the rich knife-making heritage of Maniago, Italy, the MKM Rumici Hero Lockback Walnut Folding Knife represents a seamless blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern performance. Designed by renowned Italian designer Tommaso Rumici, this knife is built not only to impress but to endure, offering precision, elegance, and durability in one refined tool.
Crafted with a premium 3.75" Bohler M390 stainless steel blade, the Hero delivers remarkable edge retention and corrosion resistance. Its satin-finished drop point profile offers excellent control for slicing, piercing, and general cutting tasks, making it an ideal choice for everyday carry or fieldwork. Whether you're opening boxes, handling camp chores, or working with rope, the Hero performs with a clean, confident edge.
The lockback mechanism engages with a secure, satisfying snap, providing a reassuring sense of stability during use. Ambidextrous thumb studs make for quick one-handed deployment, while the strong lockback ensures the blade stays firmly in place through demanding tasks. Designed for both right- and left-handed users, the Hero accommodates a wide range of grips with a focus on real-world ergonomics.
A key standout is the handle: warm, natural walnut scales that reflect the beauty of organic materials paired with precision-machined titanium bolsters. This thoughtful combination of form and function creates a handle that’s both visually striking and exceptionally durable. Subtle finger grooves and a curved tail swell anchor the knife in the hand, providing enhanced comfort and control during extended use.
At 5 inches closed and weighing 5.9 ounces, the Hero balances size and carryability. The titanium tip-up pocket clip allows for deep-pocket carry without sacrificing accessibility, and the overall profile maintains a sleek, professional appearance that complements both tactical and everyday applications.
What sets the MKM Rumici Hero apart is its lineage. Built by Maniago Knife Makers—a collaboration of Italy’s finest knife craftsmen—it reflects generations of experience united under a single vision: to create world-class knives with unmatched performance and timeless design.
Whether you're a collector, an outdoor enthusiast, or a professional who relies on dependable tools, the Hero lives up to its name. It’s more than just a knife—it’s a piece of Italian heritage that performs when it matters most.
