Kansept Knives Thunderhead Liner Lock Twill Folding Knife [K1106A2]

K.C. Spiron's cloud-inspired blade outline

K.C. Spiron named the Thunderhead for a blade silhouette that suggested developing thunderclouds. The production design pairs that broad outline with a relatively slim folding grip and a blade opening window. It is intended as an everyday cutting format, with the visual theme carried through the blade shape.

Blade, handle and carrying size

• Blade: 3.58" (90.9 mm) CPM S35VN stainless; satin finish
• Handle: Bead blast finish titanium handle with Twill carbon fiber inlay
• Mechanism: Linerlock
• Pocket size: 4.63" (11.76cm) 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 reverse-tanto profile angles the spine down toward the point while retaining a useful cutting edge beneath it. The result is a distinct tip geometry for controlled utility work.

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.

Linerlock explained

A spring section inside the handle moves behind the blade when it opens. Moving that liner aside releases the blade for folding, so the release is accessed inside the handle rather than through a separate external button.
