Vosteed Porcupine Thumb Hole Folder 14C28N Black SW Blade Black Micarta Handle

The Vosteed Porcupine Thumb Hole Folder is built to bring practical cutting performance and distinctive style to your everyday carry. Designed by Yue, this compact manual folder balances thoughtful ergonomics, dependable materials, and a clean, modern profile that’s built for real-world use. Whether you’re opening packages, breaking down boxes, or tackling day-to-day cutting tasks, the Porcupine delivers the kind of performance and reliability you’ll appreciate every time you reach for it.

At the center of the design is a 2.99-inch drop point blade crafted from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel. Known for its excellent corrosion resistance, edge stability, and easy maintenance, 14C28N is a trusted steel for hardworking EDC blades. The flat grind provides a thin, efficient cutting edge that slices smoothly through a wide range of materials, while the black stonewash finish adds a tough, low-profile look that helps hide use marks over time. With a hardness rating of HRC 59±1, the blade strikes a practical balance between durability and edge retention.

Deployment is fast and intuitive thanks to the thumb hole opener, giving you positive control when bringing the blade into action. Inside, a caged ceramic ball bearing pivot ensures smooth, consistent operation with every flick. Once open, the Top Liner Lock engages securely, providing dependable lockup while keeping the profile sleek and comfortable in hand.

The handle is constructed from black Micarta, a material prized for its durability, texture, and comfortable grip. Micarta develops character with use, gradually gaining a subtle patina that reflects the life of the knife. The handle’s contoured shape and balanced proportions create a confident feel in hand without adding unnecessary bulk. At just 3.19 ounces, the Porcupine carries light while still offering a solid, controlled grip during cutting tasks.

Small design touches add extra personality. The aluminum pivot collar in blue provides a subtle contrast against the black handle and blade, while the stainless steel button and hardware maintain strength where it matters. A reversible stainless steel pocket clip supports tip-up carry, making the knife adaptable for both left- and right-handed users.

With its balanced size, dependable steel, and clean design, the Vosteed Porcupine is a practical everyday companion that delivers performance, comfort, and understated style in one capable package.

Sharp, sleek, and full of personality—the Porcupine stands out in any pocket, available at SMKW.
