Kubey Freki Crossbar Lock Black Folding Knife [KUB465A]

A drop-point counterpart from Alessandra De Santis

Alessandra De Santis's Freki places a compact drop-point blade in a textured folding grip. Its more rounded spine-to-tip curve gives it a different working profile from the clip-point Geri. Thumb studs provide opening purchase, with a clip and lanyard hole for attachment.

Blade, handle and carrying size

• Blade: 3.11" (79 mm) 14C28N Sandvik stainless; satin finish
• Handle: Black textured G10
• Mechanism: Crossbar Lock
• Pocket size: 4.29" (109 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.

The drop-point profile combines a curved cutting belly with a lowered tip, giving it a versatile outline for slicing and controlled point work.

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.
