52,55 €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.
Jaw Pikal Light Blue G10, Beadblasted makes it clear right away that it wasn’t designed as a neutral, “safe” all-purpose folder. The MUZI Design concept leans toward a more compact, aggressive form that prioritizes grip control. It remains a knife in the EDC category, but its geometry and handle design clearly suggest a build intended for users who expect quick response, a secure grip, and highly efficient handling at close range. The 14C28N blade features a pikal profile and a flat grind, giving it a technical, assertive character. This configuration works well for controlled cuts and dynamic blade movement, while the beadblast finish reinforces the model’s raw, functional aesthetic. The manufacturer also incorporates ball bearings, a front flipper, and dual-sided pins, ensuring the knife operates smoothly and modernly, without feeling sluggish. The handle, made of G10 composite, is strongly function-oriented. Its arched shape and the steel ring at the end of the grip give the model its most recognizable feature and significantly influence how the knife is held. As a result, the Jaw does not resemble a typical, unassuming everyday-use folder—it is a compact design with distinctly specialized ergonomics and a very distinctive way of operating.
Karambit – a type of knife that originated in Indonesia, with roots in Malaysia and the Philippines. It is characterized by a finger ring and a sickle-shaped blade, which is highly effective for cutting. The Hawkbill mimics the tearing action of an eagle’s talon or a tiger’s claw, piercing and cutting simultaneously. Used as a utility knife and for self-defense.

14C28N - martensitic chromium stainless steel is the latest achievement in the range of knife steels produced by the Swedish steelmaker Sandvik. Its optimized chemical composition, featuring a unique combination of elements, ensures the highest quality, excellent edge performance, high hardness, and corrosion resistance. By reducing the carbon content to 0.62% (C) and increasing the chromium content to 14.0% (Cr), as well as adding 0.11% nitrogen (N), corrosion resistance has been significantly improved. Considered an improved version of 13C26 steel. Unbeatable in the price/quality category!
Vacuum & Cryogenic - 14C28N steel undergoes a specialized heat treatment process comprising two key stages. During Vacuum Heat Treatment, the steel is hardened in a vacuum environment, which minimizes oxidation and ensures more uniform metal properties. This process increases the steel’s strength and structural integrity. Cryogenic Treatment: After heating, the steel is rapidly cooled to extremely low temperatures, often below -100°C (-148°F). This transformation converts residual austenite into martensite, significantly increasing hardness, wear resistance, and overall durability. Thanks to these advanced processes, 14C28N steel delivers exceptional performance, offering both razor-sharp edge retention and remarkable blade durability.Blackwashed - a blade finishing method that combines two techniques. Black Coating - a protective, non-reflective black coating. Stonewashed - after the coating is applied, the blade undergoes a process that gives it a slightly aged, satin-matte appearance and effectively masks minor scratches and marks caused by use. The final result is a unique, aged look with a matte, dark finish that is both stylish and practical. It is a more aesthetic variant of the classic black stonewashed.
Blade—the pikal profile yields a blade with a compact, aggressive line, designed for excellent control at close range. The curved cutting edge facilitates pulling cuts, and the clearly defined tip allows for more precise manipulation of the blade’s tip. This geometry is less classic than drop point or clip point, but definitely more functionally expressive. The cutting performance is provided by a flat grind, which streamlines the blade’s operation and allows for better utilization of this form’s potential. The matte beadblasted finish keeps the blade in a purely functional aesthetic, without unnecessary ornamentation. Opening is supported by a front flipper, flipper, ambidextrous pins, a quick-opening system based on Emerson’s Wave, and ball-bearing mechanics, while a liner lock stabilizes the blade once open. As a result, the Jaw’s blade not only looks dynamic but also operates quickly and very smoothly.
Handle - G10 composite forms a distinctly curved grip, designed around function and control rather than a neutral, universal line. The very arrangement of curves and notches shows that the design prioritizes a stable hand position for more decisive knife operation. The steel ring at the end of the handle remains a key element. It is this ring that gives the model its most distinctive profile and reinforces the grip, increasing the sense of control during fast work. Combined with the handle’s contouring, it creates a configuration more specialized than in most classic EDC folders. The whole is complemented by steel components finished with a sandblasted finish, including the backspacer, liner, and clip. The reversible tip-up clip allows for mounting on either side, maintaining the practicality of everyday carry. In the Jaw, the handle is not merely a backdrop for the blade—it is an essential part of the entire concept behind this knife.
