Kubey Breeze Crossbar Lock Red Folding Knife [KUB288F]

Caleb Waldman's compact sheepsfoot folder

Caleb Waldman's Breeze puts a sheepsfoot-style working blade into a compact handle with thumb-stud opening. The lowered point and useful cutting edge give it a controlled utility profile. Its short folded format distinguishes it from Kubey's longer outdoor folders, with a clip supplying pocket attachment.

Blade, handle and carrying size

• Blade: 3.03" (77 mm) 14C28N Sandvik stainless; black stonewash finish
• Handle: Red G10
• Mechanism: Crossbar Lock
• Pocket size: 3.94" (100 mm) closed

Materials and cutting character

14C28N is a stainless knife steel developed around edge stability, corrosion resistance and straightforward resharpening. It is a practical choice for a knife that sees regular cutting and routine touch-ups.

G10 is a fiberglass-and-resin composite. Its layered construction gives the scales a durable structure, while the actual machining and surface texture determine how the grip feels in hand.

Crossbar Lock explained

A transverse bar engages the blade to hold it open. Pulling the bar back releases the blade for folding; the release sits near the pivot rather than along the cutting-edge channel.

Construction details

• Clip placement: The reversible pocket clip lets you change the carrying side. That affects pocket placement; it does not by itself change the lock-release design.
