The Kubey Rogue Pikal KU298F is a compact folder designed by MUZI Design featuring the distinctive Pikal geometry, with a blade made of Sandvik 14C28N steel and a red G10 handle. The design combines a Liner Lock, ceramic ball bearings, a steel finger ring, and three ways to open the knife manually.
The 74.00 mm blade has a flat grind and a dark blackwashed finish. To open the knife, you can use the thumb studs on both sides, the flipper, or the Emerson Wave feature, which allows for dynamic opening when removing the knife from your pocket.
Sandvik 14C28N and Vacuum-Cryogenic Treatment
The blade is made of Sandvik 14C28N steel, hardened to 60–62 HRC. Vacuum hardening combined with cryogenic treatment was used, which helps achieve high hardness, wear resistance, and stable steel properties during regular use.
Pikal, flat grind, and Blackwashed
The Pikal profile gives the blade its distinctive, inverted geometry and a clearly defined tip. The flat grind ensures smooth cutting through materials, while the blackwashed finish gives the blade a dark, rugged look and minimizes the visibility of minor wear marks.
Red G10, Liner Lock, and Finger Ring
The handle is made of red G10 and complemented by steel hardware finished in Black PVD. An integral part of the design is a steel finger ring, also finished in Black PVD, which influences the grip and the model’s distinctive ergonomics.
Ceramic ball bearings ensure smooth blade movement, while the Liner Lock secures the blade when fully open. The steel clip can be mounted on the right or left side in a tip-up configuration.

How do I sharpen the Kubey Rogue Pikal?
14C28N steel responds well to ceramic, water, and guided sharpening systems. Due to the blade’s distinctive profile, it’s best to guide the sharpener evenly and maintain the factory edge geometry.

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 uses a spring-loaded liner component that, when the knife is opened, moves behind the blade and stabilizes the blade in the open position.

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.
