SHOP CASE KNIVESThe WE Knife Co. Inmate is a bold fusion of tactical engineering and premium materials, built for those who demand performance without compromise. Designed with a modern edge and precise attention to detail, the Inmate is more than just a cutting tool—it's a high-performance folder that looks as good as it cuts.
The knife features a 3.7" spear point blade made from CPM 20CV stainless steel, one of the toughest, most wear-resistant steels available today. With a black stonewashed finish, the blade not only resists glare and corrosion but hides everyday use exceptionally well. Whether you're opening boxes, prepping campfire kindling, or getting into precision cuts, the Inmate’s ultra-fine edge and balanced profile deliver reliable slicing power and piercing strength every time.
Opening the blade is fast and fluid thanks to a front flipper and a generously sized thumb hole, giving you options based on your grip and preference. The secure framelock mechanism offers rock-solid lockup, and the action is dialed in for smooth deployment with minimal effort.
The handle is where the Inmate makes a serious visual impact. Crafted from 6Al-4V titanium, it features a black finish with blue raindrop accents that give the knife a distinctive, almost electric appearance. Not just for show, the titanium construction offers strength without excess weight, while the ergonomic shaping fills the hand with confidence and comfort. A sturdy tip-up pocket clip keeps the knife secure and accessible for everyday carry.
Measuring 4.78" closed and 8.4" overall, and weighing 4.12oz, the Inmate balances heft with portability. It’s designed for those who appreciate innovation, style, and the rugged utility of a knife built to last. Order it today from SMKW!
