KSPK1022A6: K1022A6 Model 6 Flipper Knife, Black Stonewashed, Shredded Carbon Fiber
Kansept Knives
The Model 6 was designed to be a working knife that could be used for various daily tasks, but could instantly be deployed as a self-defense tool. The 3.1" sheepsfoot blade provides a reliable edge that delivers solid cutting performance in daily tasks. The smooth action of the blade is fidgety and easy to actuate thanks to the great pivot design. The ergonomic shredded carbon fiber handle has a smooth grip that is comfortable in the pocket or hand. The included pocket clip is strong and holds the knife securely wherever life takes you.

Great Blade for EDC
There aren’t many reviews for this knife so I wanted to give a couple quick takes on it. The flipper is a little low on the pivot and a little small, however it flips easily as long as you’re trying to open the knife. The detent is tuned just right for the knife to flip open constantly without issue. I feel like a good percentage of knives are easier for me to reverse flick open with my pointer finger but this one is in the perfect spot for me to reverse flick with my middle finger. The pointer finger also works. The detent is also perfect for the reverse flick opening style. Holding the knife in the open position does feel like I’m a little back on the knife. I’m used to a finger choil I guess. You can easily choke up on the knife if needed though. The angle of blade works perfectly for EDC use. I’m a fan of Modified Sheepsfoot blades for EDC. The 20cv blade came sharp and the steel has great edge retention. The plunge grind and sharpening choil are down well. You’ll get plenty of sharpenings out of the knife. This knife is worth full price, but if you can get it on sale for under $120 you’ve found a great deal.
