The slim design works well for everyday carry, and the titanium handle provides a durable, corrosion-resistant platform for working with cardboard, tape, cord, and other utility materials.

CPM MagnaCut – Premium Steel for Everyday Use

CPM MagnaCut is a modern powder steel prized for its favorable combination of corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and strength. In an EDC folder, it ensures long-lasting sharpness and stable edge performance during regular use.

The Stonewashed finish gives the blade a practical, workhorse look and helps minimize the visibility of minor signs of wear. The combination of the blade’s satin-matte finish with the gray titanium handle creates a cohesive, technical aesthetic typical of premium-class knives.

Spear Point and High Flat – precision and smooth cutting

The Spear Point profile provides a centrally aligned tip and versatile geometry for everyday tasks. It performs well when precisely cutting open packaging, working with tape, opening packages, and cutting lightweight utility materials.

The High Flat grind reduces resistance during cutting and supports efficient blade guidance through the material. The combination of a flat grind with the Spear Point profile results in a design that balances tip precision, control, and practical EDC functionality.

Gray Titanium 6AL4V – a lightweight handle with high rigidity

The handle is made of Titanium 6AL4V, a material valued for its high strength, low weight, and corrosion resistance. The gray titanium finish emphasizes the knife’s minimalist character, and the precisely crafted form ensures a comfortable grip while working.

The titanium backspacer in Gray blends seamlessly with the Handle. The monolithic titanium clip in the tip-up position allows for convenient carrying of the knife along the right edge of the pocket, maintaining the clean lines of the design without any additional visual elements.

Frame Lock and IKBS Bearings – Smooth Operation and Reliable Locking

The Frame Lock utilizes a spring-loaded section of the titanium handle that rests against the rear of the blade when open. This design ensures the blade is securely locked in the open position and feels natural to users accustomed to modern folding knives.

IKBS Bearings support smooth opening of the blade with the flipper. This design improves the knife’s performance, allows for quick deployment, and aligns well with the Pandia’s character as a functional, premium everyday carry folder.
