The Kubey Tityus KU322-1A is a full-size EDC folder featuring a Sandvik 14C28N blade and a blue Canvas Micarta handle. The design features a Liner Lock, ceramic ball bearings, and two manual opening methods—a flipper and a hole in the blade.
The 86.00 mm blade features a Drop Point profile, a flat grind, and a matte bead-blasted finish. The knife opens manually via the flipper or the blade hole, and once fully extended, the blade is secured by the Liner Lock.
Sandvik 14C28N and Vacuum-Cryogenic Heat Treatment
The blade is made of Sandvik 14C28N steel, hardened to 60–62 HRC. Vacuum hardening combined with cryogenic treatment was used, which promotes high hardness, wear resistance, and stable steel properties during regular use.
Drop Point, Flat Grind, and Bead Blasted
The Drop Point profile offers a versatile working geometry with a well-controlled tip. The flat grind ensures smooth cutting through material, while the bead-blasted finish gives the blade a matte, subdued appearance.
Blue Canvas Micarta, Liner Lock, and Ceramic Bearings
The handle is made of blue Canvas Micarta, which gives the knife a more utilitarian and textured character. The design is complemented by gray stainless steel spacers and a steel clip that can be mounted on the right or left side in a tip-up configuration.
Ceramic ball bearings ensure smooth blade movement, while the Liner Lock secures the blade when fully open.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for Sandvik 14C28N steel?
It’s a good idea to clean the blade regularly and dry it thoroughly. 14C28N combines corrosion resistance with ease of sharpening, making it ideal for everyday use.
How do you sharpen the Kubey Tityus?
14C28N steel responds well to ceramic and water stones, as well as guided sharpening systems. It’s best to maintain a consistent angle and regularly refresh the cutting edge.
What sharpening angle should be used for the Kubey Tityus?
The recommended sharpening angle range is 15°–20°. This allows you to adjust the edge geometry to your preferred balance between cutting aggressiveness and blade durability.
How does the Liner Lock work?
The Liner Lock utilizes a spring-loaded liner element that, upon opening, slides behind the blade tang and stabilizes the blade in the open position.
How do you maintain ceramic ball bearings?
It’s a good idea to regularly clean the area around the pivot of dust and fine debris. If necessary, you can use a small amount of a cleaner designed for knife mechanisms.
