Kansept Knives Mini Lanza Nested Liner Lock BW Folding Knife [K1116A2]

Brandon Corbin's compact blade-to-handle approach

Brandon Corbin designed the Lanza family with attention to how much usable blade can fit into the folded handle. The Mini Lanza carries that principle into a smaller format, with grip contours intended to position the hand naturally. Its factory mechanism and thumb-stud opening are identified for the selected version.

Blade, handle and carrying size

• Blade: 3.25" CPM-20CV stainless; BlackWash finish
• Handle: BlackWash titanium
• Mechanism: Linerlock
• Pocket size: 4.25" (10.8cm) closed

Materials and cutting character

CPM 20CV is a powder-metallurgy stainless steel developed for wear and corrosion resistance. It is a useful choice when edge life through repeated cutting is a priority.

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