Kubey Belus EDC Liner Lock Jade Folding Knife [KUB342K]

A compact folder with stud and flipper access

The Belus combines thumb studs with a pivot-end opening tab, offering two places to gain deployment purchase. Kubey's in-house design uses a compact handle and a separate pocket clip around the folding mechanism. That operating layout is the useful distinction from similarly sized single-interface models.

Blade, handle and carrying size

• Blade: 3.00" 14C28N Sandvik stainless; BlackWash finish
• Handle: Jade G10
• Mechanism: Linerlock
• Pocket size: 4" (10.16cm) closed

Materials and cutting character

14C28N is a stainless knife steel developed around edge stability, corrosion resistance and straightforward resharpening. It is a practical choice for a knife that sees regular cutting and routine touch-ups.

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

G10 is a fiberglass-and-resin composite. Its layered construction gives the scales a durable structure, while the actual machining and surface texture determine how the grip feels in hand.

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.

Construction details

• Bearing pivot: Ceramic bearings support blade rotation around the pivot, adding a rolling interface to the opening action.
• Clip placement: The reversible pocket clip lets you change the carrying side. That affects pocket placement; it does not by itself change the lock-release design.
