Vero Engineering Nova Mini Blackwash 3.25in Plain Blackwash Drop Point V-NO-BTB-FK-1688-S

The Vero Engineering Nova Mini Blackwash is a sleek, compact folding knife built for precision, durability, and effortless carry. With its clean lines and tactical edge, this manual folder brings together premium materials and thoughtful design to deliver a refined tool that’s ready for everyday challenges. Whether you're at the jobsite, on the move, or simply opening mail at home, the Nova Mini keeps performance and style in perfect balance.

At the heart of the knife is a 3.25-inch drop point blade crafted from Bohler M390 stainless steel—an ultra-premium steel known for its outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance. It’s a favorite among serious knife users and makers for good reason. The blade is finished with a dark, rugged Blackwash that gives the Nova Mini a bold look while helping conceal scratches from regular use. It adds character without compromising performance, making this knife as tough as it is attractive.

Opening the Nova Mini is quick and intuitive, thanks to a low-profile flipper tab and smooth caged ceramic bearings. The blade deploys with precision and closes with ease, offering the kind of reliability and feel that knife lovers look for in a daily carry. Once open, the blade locks firmly into place with a robust titanium framelock, giving you confidence during use no matter the task.

The handle is crafted from stonewash titanium, creating a subtle contrast with the blade’s darker finish while maintaining that rugged, industrial aesthetic. Titanium offers an ideal mix of lightweight strength and comfort, and the stonewash treatment not only looks great but helps minimize signs of wear. At 4 ounces, the Nova Mini carries light but feels solid in hand, offering the control you need for detailed work without adding bulk to your pocket.

Measuring 7.5 inches overall and just 4.15 inches closed, the Nova Mini is compact enough to take everywhere but capable enough to stand up to serious use. The tip-up titanium pocket clip keeps the knife secure and discreet while allowing for quick access. It's the kind of knife you'll forget you're carrying until you need it—and when you do, it performs with authority and finesse.

Like every Vero design, the Nova Mini Blackwash showcases Joseph Vero’s signature attention to form and function. Every curve, cut, and finish has been fine-tuned for real-world use, resulting in a tool that’s both practical and beautiful. The understated elegance of the Blackwash blade paired with the clean look of the titanium handle makes this knife a standout, whether you’re collecting or carrying.
