Miguron Vane II FAQ

Designed by Vu Pham, the Miguron Vane II pairs a high-performance M390 blade with a smooth crossbar lock. The series spans multiple handle choices, from lightweight Micarta and PEI to premium textured titanium.

What blade steel does the Miguron Vane II use?
The Miguron Vane II uses Bohler M390 stainless steel across every model in the lineup. As covered in our knife steel guide, M390 is a premium powder metallurgy steel celebrated for high wear resistance and outstanding edge retention.
Why is the Miguron Vane II considered such a high-value folder?
The Vane II stands out by pairing top-tier M390 blade steel with a smooth crossbar lock at an unusually accessible price point. With base models in Micarta and PEI available under $100, it provides materials and mechanical quality typically reserved for much higher price tiers.
What handle materials are available on the Vane II?
The Vane II lineup offers blue Micarta, yellow PEI (Ultem), and textured Lightning Strike titanium handle options. Micarta and PEI variants feature black DLC coated blades for a lightweight everyday carry build, while the titanium version features intricate milling, anodized accents, and a hand-rubbed satin blade.
What blade shape does the Vane II have?
The Vane II features a 3.25-inch drop point blade with a distinctive, slight bull-nose contour toward the tip. This profile adds strength to the point while maintaining a generous cutting belly, making it suitable for both detailed slicing and heavier utility chores.
Is the pocket clip on the Vane II reversible?
Yes, the Vane II includes a reversible titanium pocket clip designed for ambidextrous tip-up pocket carry. Because the crossbar locking mechanism is also completely ambidextrous, the knife can be deployed, used, and carried comfortably in either hand.
