Kansept Knives Mini Kryo Frame Lock Blackwash Folding Knife [K2001S1]

The Kryo concept in a smaller format

Kim Ning's Mini Kryo reduces the Kryo's streamlined folding layout for a more compact pocket setup. It retains the shaped working blade, pivot-end opening tab and blade window in the design. A bearing-supported pivot accompanies the smaller mechanism.

Blade, handle and carrying size

• Blade: 2.9" (74 mm) CPM S35VN stainless; black stonewash finish
• Handle: Black stonewash finish titanium
• Mechanism: Framelock
• Pocket size: 3.75" (9.53cm) closed

Materials and cutting character

S35VN is a powder-metallurgy stainless steel developed to balance wear resistance with toughness. It gives this blade a useful combination of edge life and resistance to corrosion for everyday cutting.

Titanium gives the handle a corrosion-resistant metal structure. The color and surface treatment describe its finish; they do not change the underlying handle metal.

Framelock explained

Part of the metal handle itself forms the locking bar. It moves behind the open blade and is pushed aside to release it, giving the mechanism a direct, exposed interface along the handle.

Construction details

• Bearing pivot: Ceramic bearings support blade rotation around the pivot, adding a rolling interface to the opening action.
