Product Description

The Karbon Terminal is a Ken Onion-designed EDC flipper built around a crossbar lock and a 3.31" Sandvik 14C28N blade, giving it smooth, adjustable-tension deployment and an edge that's easy to maintain between sharpenings. At 3.34 oz with a 7.64" overall length, it stays light and pocketable without feeling insubstantial.

The blade is Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, ground to a drop point profile with a two-tone satin and bead blast finish, a Scandinavian steel prized for toughness and easy field sharpening rather than maximum edge retention. It rides on ceramic ball bearings for a fast, fluid flipper action, and locks open via a crossbar (Axis-style) lock with adjustable tension, letting you tune the pivot resistance to your own preference.

The handle is precision-milled Desert Tan G10, a lightweight and grippy composite that holds up to daily carry abuse without cracking or discoloring, giving the Terminal a warm, earth-toned look suited to outdoor and duty carry alike. A 6AL-4V titanium pocket clip rides tip-up, and a matching 6AL-4V titanium backspacer rounds out the build for a knife that feels considerably more premium than its price point suggests.
