CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Viper Knives Vox Key Slip Joint with bronze anodized titanium handles delivers compact utility wrapped in clean, purposeful design. Created by Jesper Voxnaes, this knife reflects a modern interpretation of the traditional pocket knife, pairing minimalist lines with premium materials. It’s built for those who want a refined everyday carry that doesn’t sacrifice performance or durability despite its small footprint.
The blade is crafted from Böhler M390 stainless steel, a high-end steel chosen for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. A stonewashed finish reduces glare and helps hide the inevitable signs of daily use, giving the blade a subtle, work-ready appearance. Its compact profile and precise tip make it ideal for light cutting tasks, detail work, and everyday chores where control matters more than blade length.
This model uses a traditional slip joint mechanism with a strong, well-tuned backspring. The action is smooth and deliberate, encouraging controlled use without locks or complicated mechanisms. A classic nail nick keeps deployment simple and legal-friendly in many areas, reinforcing the knife’s role as a practical daily companion rather than a tactical tool.
The standout feature is the bronze anodized titanium handle. Lightweight yet exceptionally strong, titanium provides outstanding durability while keeping the knife easy to carry. The anodized bronze finish adds warmth and depth, giving the knife a refined, almost heirloom-quality look while maintaining a rugged edge. Subtle shaping ensures a comfortable grip, and the slim profile allows it to disappear into a pocket until it’s needed.
