Vosteed Raccoon Top Liner Lock Folder 14C28N Copper Dune Blade Black Micarta Handle A2928

The Vosteed Raccoon Top Liner Lock Folder proves that a dependable everyday carry knife doesn’t have to sacrifice style or performance. Designed by Yue Dong, this updated version of the Raccoon brings a fresh edge to a fan-favorite platform, pairing smart engineering with practical cutting power. Built for daily tasks and long-term reliability, it’s the kind of knife you’ll reach for again and again.

At the heart of the Raccoon is a 3.25-inch modified sheepsfoot blade crafted from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel. Known for its excellent corrosion resistance, toughness, and easy maintenance, 14C28N performs exceptionally well in everyday cutting situations. The modified sheepsfoot design features a straight cutting edge and subtly reinforced tip, giving you impressive control for push cuts and precise slicing. Whether you’re opening packages, trimming cord, breaking down boxes, or handling detailed work, this blade delivers clean, controlled performance.

The blade features Vosteed’s distinctive Copper Dune finish, adding a warm, earthy tone that stands out while helping conceal everyday wear. A straight fuller runs along the blade, adding visual depth and a sleek, refined look without sacrificing strength. The flat grind enhances slicing efficiency, allowing the blade to glide through materials with minimal resistance.

Deployment is smooth and satisfying thanks to the thumb stud opener and caged ceramic ball bearing pivot system. The Raccoon uses Vosteed’s Top Liner Lock design, paired with a button-operated release that delivers secure lockup and effortless one-handed operation. The mechanism provides confidence during use while maintaining smooth, reliable action.

The 4.36-inch handle is built from black micarta, offering a comfortable, secure grip with a warm, tactile feel that improves with use. Carefully chamfered edges enhance ergonomics, allowing the knife to sit naturally in the hand and reducing fatigue during extended cutting tasks. With a handle width of 1.10 inches and a thickness of just 0.488 inches, the knife feels substantial without becoming bulky.

Weighing only 3.84 ounces, the Raccoon is balanced perfectly for everyday carry. A reversible stainless steel tip-up pocket clip makes it easy to carry for both left- and right-handed users, while the aluminum backspacer and copper-toned hardware add subtle visual accents to the design.

Blending thoughtful engineering, dependable materials, and everyday functionality, the Vosteed Raccoon Modified Sheepsfoot is a practical tool built for real-world use, available at SMKW.
