Viper Kyomi Framelock Folding Knife N690Co/Titanium

The Viper Knives Kyomi Flipper is a refined everyday carry built for those who value clean lines, premium materials, and dependable performance. Designed by Jesper Voxnaes, the Kyomi reflects a disciplined, purpose-driven approach where every element is there for a reason. It’s compact and easy to carry, yet it delivers a reassuring sense of solidity that inspires confidence during daily use.

The blade is a stonewashed drop point crafted from N690Co stainless steel, a proven steel known for its toughness, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. The stonewash finish minimizes glare and helps hide wear from real-world cutting, making it ideal for an EDC that’s meant to work. The drop point profile offers excellent tip control and a practical edge length, allowing the Kyomi to handle everyday cutting tasks with precision while maintaining a streamlined, modern look.

Deployment is fast and consistent thanks to the flipper tab and smooth pivot action. The blade opens cleanly and locks up securely, delivering a predictable, confident feel every time it’s put to use. There’s nothing flashy about the action, just reliable performance that reinforces the Kyomi’s role as a serious everyday tool.

The handle features full titanium construction on both sides, giving the knife a solid, premium feel without excessive weight. Titanium offers exceptional strength, rigidity, and long-term durability, while the carefully contoured shape provides a comfortable, controlled grip. It carries flat in the pocket and feels well balanced in hand, striking a smart balance between comfort, strength, and refined design. The all-titanium build also gives the Kyomi a cohesive, understated appearance that pairs well with its clean blade profile.
