Artisan Cutlery Gambit King Frame Lock Titanium Folding Knife [1874G-TDB]

Gambit King — a distinct handle edition

The King combines a mirror-finished blade with a Timascus handle. The handle’s patterned material and blade polish give this edition a different presentation from the plainer metal or G10-inlaid Gambit versions.

The Gambit references share similar carrying dimensions, so the actual handle construction and finish matter alongside the chess-piece name. Thumb-pull purchase opens the blade, with the separate release and pocket clip forming the folding carrying layout.

Opening and lock operation

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.

Steel and maintenance

S90V is a powder-metallurgy stainless steel with a high volume of hard vanadium carbides. Its emphasis is wear resistance and long edge life, so it rewards regular edge maintenance rather than waiting until the blade is fully dull.

Supplied equipment

Black nylon zippered storage case.
