Kingpin Slipjoint - OD Micarta / Black Blade

The Kingpin is a slipjoint that combines traditional pattern cues with modern design aesthetic and premium build quality. I wanted to create a design that has all the things I personally look for in a knife: cuts well, compact/pocket friendly, and looks beautiful.

This version features micarta overlays and has a black PVD coating over the M390 blade, titanium handles, spring, and hardware. The PVD has been stonewashed for a working finish. Micarta patinas over time with the oils from your hand. You can 'reset' the patina by simply giving it a wipe with some rubbing alcohol. (Micarta color and pattern may vary slightly in appearance.)

Ships with a leather slip and cleaning cloth.
