This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Swordfin Titanium/Flamed Titanium, Bead Blasted, a design by South African-based knifemaker Thys Meades for WeKnife, a compact, easy-to-carry folding knife. Titanium on a perfectly crafted Handle, ceramic Ball bearings for a smooth opening, excellent CPM 20CV steel considered one of the best steels for knives. Unbelievable cutting properties! The perfect addition to your EDC gear!
Thys Meades - a knifemaker from South Africa, started making fixed blade knives under the tutelage of Rob Brown, a well-known South African maker, in 2014. About two years later, he started making traditional slipjoints and gained a foothold and recognition in the American market. After a while, I started making slipjoint folding knives, using a mix of modern and traditional materials. He established a reputation with his Guardian, Flow and Swordfish models, the latter produced only in limited editions.
He continues to design and create high-end custom knives making his dreams come true.
CPM 20CV - one of the best tool steels, American premium martensitic stainless steel. Produced by US Crucible Industries using the particle metallurgy / Crucible® Particle Metallurgy (CPM) method. The CPM process creates a very homogeneous, high-quality steel with excellent dimensional stability, grindability and ductility compared to steels produced by conventional methods. Designed to provide better wear resistance while maintaining corrosion resistance at the highest level. This super steel is comparable to Bohler's M390 steel or Carpenter's CTS-204P. According to some knife manufacturers, 20CV is the best of these three steels in terms of edge retention. It consists of 1.9% carbon (C), 20.0% chromium (Cr), 4.0% vanadium (V), 1.0% molybdenum (Mo) and 0.6% tungsten (W). The high percentage of chromium with a touch of molybdenum makes 20CV one of the best high-end corrosion-resistant steels.
Blade - Tanto type, finished with scratch-masking Bead Blasted glaze. The expansive belly extends the length of the cutting edge in relation to the length of the blade converging towards the needle-sharp tip of the knife. The thickness of the blade provides high strength while the high, flat grind gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ceramic ball bearings assist in opening the blade with a quick index-finger front flipper or with a double-sided peg in the wedge. The entire blade is locked with the proven and popular liner lock.
Handle - made of 6AL4V titanium with a slightly rough texture, whose beveled edges of the covers eliminate sharp edges for comfort, and the fore finger groove made on the front improves grip security. Additional grips made of flame-dyed titanium were mounted on them. The grips are connected to each other with a titanium backspacer, thanks to which the knife retains the desired rigidity of construction. The simplicity and solidity of the construction give assurance of many years of use. Single-position clip (right), made of titanium, allows carrying the knife in tip-up position. The pivot axis decorated with a titanium rim (pivot collar cap).
Case - included zippered soft nylon case with the manufacturer's logo for safe storage and transportation of the folder.
