Built entirely by hand and backed for life, this folder delivers both rugged performance and striking aesthetics, combining durable materials with thoughtful engineering to create a knife that’s as functional as it is collectible.

The handles are crafted from black and blue G-10, a material known for its strength, durability, and lightweight characteristics. The textured scales provide a secure grip in any condition, ensuring confidence when performing demanding tasks. The knife also includes a stonewashed stainless steel pocket clip for secure carry and a lanyard hole for additional attachment options, combining practicality with style.
