Kansept Knives Mini Korvid Liner Lock PEI Folding Knife [K3030P1]

The Korvid's broad blade on a miniature scale

Justin Koch's Mini Korvid puts the family's broad utility-blade silhouette into a very small folding package. The contrast with the XL Korvid is deliberate: the Mini can occupy a much smaller pocket space while retaining the recognizable shape. Its short handle and blade make the measurements central to choosing it.

Blade, handle and carrying size

• Blade: 1.45" (36.9 mm) CPM S35VN stainless; satin finish
• Handle: PEI
• Mechanism: Linerlock
• Pocket size: 2.25" (5.72cm) 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 translucent amber grip is made from PEI thermoplastic. Its see-through appearance gives this version a different visual character from opaque composite scales or solid metal handles.

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.
