As part of Poikilo Blade's EDC Series, the Prism Small delivers a compact yet capable cutting tool that offers the strength and functionality expected from a high-end folding knife. From its premium Bohler M398 blade steel to its lightweight titanium handle, every component has been carefully selected to provide exceptional durability, smooth operation, and lasting performance.
The Prism Small features a 3.88" reverse tanto blade crafted from Bohler M398 stainless steel, a premium blade material known for its outstanding edge retention, excellent wear resistance, and impressive corrosion resistance. Designed for users who expect long-lasting cutting performance, M398 maintains a sharp edge through extended use while requiring minimal maintenance. The reverse tanto blade style provides an ideal combination of strength, precision, and versatility, featuring a reinforced tip for durability along with a capable cutting edge for everyday utility tasks. Whether you're handling detailed cutting work or more demanding applications, the blade shape offers excellent control and reliability. A flat V-grind enhances slicing performance while maintaining the toughness needed for everyday carry. Finished in Pearlescent Stonewash (PSW), the blade features a distinctive appearance with subtle light-reflecting qualities while helping conceal scratches and signs of use, keeping the knife looking refined over time.
Deployment is fast and versatile with both a flipper tab and frontal flipper opening system. These options provide smooth, reliable access to the blade while allowing users to choose the deployment method that best fits their preference. Once deployed, the titanium inset liner lock with steel lockbar insert provides secure blade retention and dependable strength. This locking system combines the lightweight benefits of titanium with the durability of a steel contact surface, delivering reliable performance through repeated use.
The titanium handle provides an excellent balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and lightweight durability. Measuring 4.95" long and 0.55" wide, the handle offers a comfortable, ergonomic grip while maintaining a sleek profile for everyday carry. Titanium's impressive strength-to-weight ratio allows the Prism Small to deliver rugged performance while keeping overall weight at just 5.01 ounces. The clean titanium construction complements the Pearlescent Stonewash blade finish, creating a modern, premium appearance that reflects the knife's precision craftsmanship.
Configured for right-hand, tip-up carry, the Prism Small stays ready for quick access whenever it's needed. With an overall length of 8.80", it provides an excellent balance of compact portability and functional cutting capability, making it a dependable choice for everyday utility, outdoor activities, or collection-worthy display.
