Kansept Knives Prometheus Frame Lock Carbon Fiber Folding Knife [K1040A1]

D.O.C.K.'s refined compact folder

Dmitry Osarenko's Prometheus takes its name from the mythological bringer of fire. Kansept describes the design as an early D.O.C.K. concept refined in 2020, with changes to size, mechanism and ergonomics. The resulting folder combines a broad working blade with a shaped grip.

Blade, handle and carrying size

• Blade: 3.29" (83.6 mm) CPM S35VN stainless; satin finish
• Handle: Twill carbon fiber handle with Black stonewash titanium back
• Mechanism: Framelock
• Pocket size: 4.25" (10.8cm) 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.

The sheepsfoot profile brings the spine down toward the point and keeps a relatively straight working edge, favoring controlled utility cutting.

Carbon fiber combines reinforcing fibers with resin, adding a visible layered or patterned character to the grip. The selected weave or inlay is part of this version’s appearance.

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.
