15 New Pocket Knives, Multi-Tools and EDC Items You Might Have Missed

Don’t let appearances fool you; this knife, which combines the 117 Brahma and 102 Woodsman, has a lot of surprising elements to behold. For starters, despite looking massive, it’s actually pretty compact (hence the “Mini” in the name), with a blade measuring 4.5 inches total. That puts it squarely in bushcraft fixed blade contention. It also has a MagnaCut steel blade paired with a semi-complex handle crafted from Phenolic, aluminum and Micarta. It’s the perfect blend of heritage styling and contemporary materials.

Given that the original Scrimshaw Henry Collection sold out in a weekend over the summer, it was only a matter of time till WESN and P&Co teamed back up for the sequel. The new series reprises its predecessor’s 2.35-inch 14C28N steel blade, non-locking slip-joint mechanism, raw brass liners and ethically sourced ox bone inlay, with three knives featuring new designs on one handle scale. The other scale, plus all of a fourth knife, The Blank Canvas, can be customized thanks to the included kit with India ink, a carving tool and instructions on how to scrimshaw like an 18th century sailor.

This incredibly innovative pocket knife can be configured four different ways — ranging from a two-handed non-locking slip joint to a one-handed locking blade — in seconds using a standard Torx driver. That boosts its legality in places with strict statutes, and it’s a premium EDC knife to boot: the handle is grade-5 titanium, while the 3.3-inch drop-point blade is made of CPM-20CV steel, a high-performance tool steel prized for its edge retention, wear resistance, and corrosion protection.

Measuring less than two inches long and weighing less than 0.4 ounces, the Z3RO is one small but potent keychain knife. The sheath’s internal neodymium magnetic system protects the bladed portion while also releasing it in a flash with one firm tug. The replaceable blade is made of tungsten alloy, the same material used in surgical tools and industrial cutters. The sheath, meanwhile, is constructed of 3K twill weave carbon fiber with a titanium core, giving it natural resistance to corrosion, impact and everyday wear and tear.

For those unfamiliar, Vosteed’s mascot is a Raccoon. The brand also has a knife called the Raccoon — one of its stalwart, affordable flagships. Well, that knife just got a pretty significant glow-up, including a fully reinforced structure, full backspacer upgrade, stronger locking support and some handle beveling to make the grip even stronger and more ergonomic. And yet, all of that is offered while keeping the knife starting at just $65. Not bad at all.

The first-ever production knife from Montana Knife Company to feature a Damascus blade, the MKC Damascus Blackfoot features a 3.75-inch blade forged by Montana bladesmith Will Stelter, a premium-grade desert ironwood burl handle and a custom ostrich leather sheath, built from Teton Leather. The knife represents the beginning of MKC’s collector-grade custom division, and although its $1,000 price tag is stunning all on its own, the limited-edition knife is sold out, never to return.

With its rustproof Terravantium blade and titanium handle, the Terrain 365 Invictus is already one of the toughest folders ever made. Its also so corrosion resistant that the brand guarantees it to be rustproof for life. However, it just got a whole lot more convenient courtesy of a new, patented pivot locking mechanism. Just press the button on the pivot and the blade swings free. And yet, when its engaged, its incredibly strong and secure.

Another shining example of the brand’s grasp of precision engineering and top-shelf, high-performance materials, the We Knife Skynix is an absolute stunner. Boasting materials that include Böhler M390 steel (or Damasteel) for the trailing point blade, titanium handle scales and either carbon fiber or titanium inlays, there’s a configuration for everyone. Furthermore, all of them come with a frame lock and dual deployments (thumb stud and flipper).

GiantMouse’s beloved kitchen cutlery collection is back, bigger and better than ever. In addition to reprising the satin-finished blades with Green Micarta handle scales, the brand is introducing stonewash-finished blades with Red G10 scales, as well as its first Bread Knife, strategically serrated to cleanly slice baked goods. Returning options include the Chef Knife, Santoku Knife, Carving Knife and Paring Knife, each prized for its precision, balance and reliable Nitro-B steel. All knives can be purchased individually or as a set.

These knives are hand-crafted by an artisan who spent 36 years in the Japanese Defense Force’s Reconnaissance Unit. Furthermore, they’re made utilizing centuries-old blacksmithing techniques — the same ones employed by the Samurai. They’re built from solid, reliable carbon steel, feature a full-tang construction (which adds strength to the whole knife) and come in either small or large sizes. These are excellent all-around fixed blades with unique Japanese flair and ruggedness.

The spiritual successor to the brand’s Ankylo, the first knife to feature Vosteed’s signature Vanchor pivot lock, the Thunderbeast is, as its name suggests, a bit of a monster (in a good way). It features a beefy M390 super steel blade with triple deployment options, which is mated to a full titanium handle and, of course, that same killer locking mechanism as its ancestor. At over 8.0 inches, it’s a pretty beefy knife, but its materials and sleek design help keep it highly carry-friendly.

Titaner is billing this small wonder as “the world’s first 3-level titanium zipper lock,” and it certainly lives up to its name, thanks to three layers of adjustable, Rubik’s Cube-like security, from “quick access” to “ultimate deadlock.” CNC-machined from tough, corrosion-resistant Grade-5 titanium, the Trident is addictively fidget-friendly and extra handy too: the head of the latch doubles as a box opener and flat head screwdriver, while the tail is a 4mm hex wrench.

If this fixed blade’s name seems familiar, you probably recognize it as the surname of the protagonist of the Dune movies, as played by Timothée Chalamet. Interestingly, it more closely resembles the long blades used by Duncan Idaho (Jason Momoa), with its aggressive tanto blade shape and straight handle. Measuring 11.40 inches total, it has a black-finished 5.70-inch 65Mn steel blade, a removable polypropylene handle and comes with a Tek-Lok-compatible sheath.

The Bel-Air has quickly become one of Kershaw’s most popular knives, likely due to its combination of versatility, style and the fact that it has the brand’s DuraLock mechanism (Kershaw’s take on a crossbar). This vibrant “Mint Chocolate Chip” version is sure to further that fan favoritism. A Factory Special, this one has a MagnaCut blade, aluminum handle (both with Cerakote finishes) and retains its iconic shape, size and, of course, that crossbar lock.

This sleek gentleman’s knife echoes CRKT’s award-winning CEO while bringing its own unique energy to the table. Highlights include a 3.58-inch wharncliffe blade made of AR-RPM9 steel, an aluminum handle and a 1.36-ounce total weight, enabling the steel clip to hang over the edge of a suit jacket’s breast pocket without causing the whole thing to wilt as it might with a traditional pocket knife.
