0,00 €Kizer Dingo Black Burlap Micarta, Satin AEB-L by Maksim Epifantsev – a lightweight fixed-blade knife with a skeletonized tang design
The Kizer Dingo 1121A2 is a compact fixed-blade knife designed by Maksim Epifantsev, combining AEB-L steel with a Modified Drop Point profile and black Burlap Micarta. The satin finish on the blade gives the design a more classic look, while the Skeletonized Tang helps reduce weight without compromising the knife’s functionality.
The model has a total length of 198.8 mm and weighs 89 g, making it comfortable to carry despite its full-size 89.05 mm blade. The contoured handle, jimping on the spine, and a Kydex sheath with a Tek-Lok attachment create a practical set for outdoor activities and everyday tasks.
AEB-L – Fine-Grained Steel for Utility Knives
The blade is made of AEB-L steel hardened to 59 ±2 HRC. This material effectively combines corrosion resistance with high toughness and the ability to achieve a sharp, easily resharpenable edge. As a result, it is well-suited for applications where regular use and simple maintenance are essential.
Modified Drop Point – Control and Versatility
Modified Drop Point offers a balance between the ability to manipulate the tip with precision and efficient cutting with the main portion of the edge. This geometry works well for planing, material preparation, notching, and typical field tasks.
Flat Grind and Satin-Finished Blade
The Flat grind provides a simple and versatile blade geometry suitable for a wide range of tasks. The satin finish highlights the blade’s lines and creates a striking contrast with the black Burlap Micarta handle.
Black Burlap Micarta – textured grip
The handle is made of black Burlap Micarta, whose fibrous structure provides a natural, tactile texture. Combined with the handle’s contouring and jimping, it helps maintain control of the knife when working in more demanding conditions.
Skeletonized Tang – reduced weight without excess material
Skeletonized Tang is a lightweight tang design in which part of the steel inside the Handle has been removed. This solution reduces weight and improves balance while maintaining the solid construction of a fixed-blade knife.
Kydex and Tek-Lok
The knife comes with a Kydex sheath, which securely protects the blade during transport. The Tek-Lok attachment system allows you to clip the sheath to your belt or gear and comfortably customize how you carry it to suit your needs.

This is the model for users who prefer a simple, classic configuration without an additional blade coating. AEB-L steel, a satin finish, Black Burlap Micarta, and a Skeletonized Tang combine to create a lightweight, functional fixed-blade knife for regular outdoor and utility work.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for AEB-L steel?
After use, it’s a good idea to clean the blade and dry it thoroughly. Regular sharpening on whetstones, ceramic sharpening rods, or a guided sharpening system makes it easy to maintain a sharp edge.
How does the Modified Drop Point differ from the classic Drop Point?
The Modified Drop Point retains the general logic of a sloping spine, but its geometry is modified for a specific application. In the Dingo, it combines a controlled tip with a functional cutting edge for everyday and outdoor tasks.
What are the benefits of a Skeletonized Tang?
Lightening the tang reduces the overall weight of the knife and improves its balance. At the same time, the design maintains a continuous steel core inside the handle.
Does Burlap Micarta perform well in wet conditions?
Its textured, fibrous surface provides a firm grip and is well-suited for outdoor use. However, after contact with water, it’s a good idea to clean and dry the handle along with the entire knife.
How does the Tek-Lok attachment work?
Tek-Lok allows you to clip a Kydex sheath to your belt or other suitable piece of gear. This lets you adjust the knife’s position to suit your preferred carrying style.
