The ArtisanCutlery Archaeo is a slim flipper with smooth lines and a light touch. The 3.82" drop blade is made from M390 stainless steel and features a slim piercing point. The blade deploys smoothly and quickly thanks to the integrated ball bearings in the pivot. The titanium handles have a large carbon fiber inlay that adds a lot of style to the uncomplicated profile of the knife. The shape of the handles lock the knife firmly into your grasp and give purchase to any cutting task you might need it for. The Archaeo from ArtisanCutlery makes a perfect gentleman's pocket knife.

Pros: Weight, Ease of Opening
Cons: None
Not worth the price.
It's a somewhat nice knife, but fit and finish is garbage at this price point. This is my second knife for this model. First one was returned and exchanged because of bevel grinds gripes and an uneven chamfering around the thumb hole. The replacement had a carbon fiber handle scale insert with gaps that showed. The frame lock side of the handle had massive burrs. These fit and finishes issues SHOULD NOT be present on a knife at this price. I have the D2 budget version of this knife and it has better fit and finish at a fourth of the price. At this price point, your just paying for overpriced M390 blade steel. If your going to be a Chinese made knife with good fit and finish stick with Bestech or WE knife Co. Or a budget Chinese maker, Civivi. If your like Artisan Cutlery designs, just stick with their budget offerings.
