0,00 €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.
Kizer Khamsin Silver Aluminum, Satin Nitro-V by Maksim Epifantsev – an EDC folding knife with an aluminum handle
The Kizer Khamsin V3791A3 is a folding knife designed by Maksim Epifantsev, inspired by the North African Khamsin wind and the movement of a sandstorm. The silver aluminum handle, satin-finished Drop Point blade, and Nitro-V steel combine to create an elegant, everyday EDC folder.
The model features a Fuller or Thumb Stud opening mechanism, a Kizer Clutch Lock™ with an adjustable spring, and a reversible deep-carry clip. The milled geometric pattern on the aluminum handle ensures a secure grip, while the thumb ramp and subtle swedge improve blade control.
Nitro-V – Stainless Steel for EDC
The blade is made of Nitro-V stainless steel with a hardness of 60–61 HRC. It is a practical material for everyday use, offering a good balance of corrosion resistance, ease of sharpening, and consistent cutting edge performance.
Drop Point, Flat Grind, and Satin
The Drop Point profile provides a versatile geometry for everyday cutting tasks. The flat grind ensures smooth glide through materials, while the satin finish gives the blade a clean, classic look.
Silver Aluminum and Deep Carry Clip
The silver-colored aluminum handle features a milled, geometric pattern inspired by the movement of sand. The Kizer Clutch Lock™ stabilizes the blade when open, and ball bearings ensure smooth opening. Gray spacer sleeves complete the understated, technical look of this variant.
