Kansept Knives Cybin Frame Lock Folding Knife [K1080A1]

A fixed-blade concept translated into folding carry

Scott Stills' Cybin began as a fixed-blade design before Kansept adapted it to a folder. The production model retains an unusual blade outline and textured handle, giving the compact format a strongly defined character. A blade opening window provides deployment purchase.

Blade, handle and carrying size

• Blade: 3.29" (83.5 mm) CPM S35VN stainless; stonewash finish
• Handle: Bronze frag pattern titanium
• 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.

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.
