Another solid entry into Bestech's lineup, the Cetus is one beast of a folding knife. The M390 stainless steel blade has a compound-ground tanto design with a ton of belly and a smooth profile. The blade deploys quickly and smoothly thanks to the ceramic ball bearings in the pivot assembly that Bestech has perfected.

Bestech Cetus BT2304 FAQ

Designed by Poltergeist Knife Works, the Bestech Cetus is a substantial folder featuring a complex compound-ground tanto blade and a reliable crossbar lock. This series balances premium M390 steel with ergonomic handle options suitable for heavy-duty daily carry.

What steel is used for the Bestech Cetus?
The Bestech Cetus series uses M390 stainless steel, a premium powder metallurgy steel known for exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance. The blade features a compound-ground tanto profile with a high hollow grind for slicing and a flat-ground tip for added durability during push cuts.
How does the Bestech Cetus lock open?
This series utilizes a crossbar lock mechanism that allows for smooth and safe one-handed operation. The blade deploys on ceramic ball bearings, ensuring the action remains fast and consistent over time.
What handle materials are available for the Cetus?
The Bestech Cetus series offers several premium handle options including canvas Micarta and foil-infused carbon fiber. Each variant features dark bronze titanium bolsters to provide a robust frame for the nearly four-inch blade.
Can the Bestech Cetus be adjusted without special tools?
Maintenance is simplified because the Cetus features hardware that can be adjusted with a standard flathead screwdriver. This allows users to tune the pivot tension or tighten the backspacer screw without needing specialized Torx drivers.
Is the Bestech Cetus suitable for left-handed users?
Deployment is partially ambidextrous via the thumb plate or the crossbar lock, but the pocket clip is not reversible. The clip is set for right-hand, tip-up carry only, which may be a consideration for left-handed enthusiasts.
