Vosteed Knives Leopard Folders

The top liner lock is a button-actuated system that allows for easy one-handed opening and closing without placing fingers in the path of the edge. On the Vosteed Leopard, this mechanism provides a buttery smooth action, allowing the blade to be flicked into position or dropped shut with minimal effort.

Vosteed Leopard folders utilize M390 stainless steel, a premium material known for its high wear resistance and edge retention. To learn more about how this material compares to other high-end options, consult our best knife steel guide.

While the Leopard features a high flat grind, it is designed with a slightly overbuilt feel rather than being a dedicated thin slicer. The 3.38 inch reverse tanto blade shape provides a sturdy geometry that handles heavy duty tasks without becoming too thick to be useful for standard cutting applications.

The milled titanium pocket clip on the Vosteed Leopard is bolted from the inside of the handle scales. This design choice ensures there is no visible hardware on the outside of the scale, resulting in a very clean presentation and a smooth aesthetic for the titanium handle.

The Leopard series supports multiple deployment methods, including using the large oval hole in the blade for traditional thumb or middle-finger flicks. Alternatively, the user can depress the top liner lock button and use a wrist flick to cycle the blade open or closed.
