0,00 €Kizer C01C Uti 2 Brown G10, Bead Blasted 5Cr15MoV Folding Knife by Sheepdog Knives (3488.29JNA2)
The Kizer C01C Uti 2 3488.29JNA2 builds on the concept of a utility folding knife with a replaceable blade, replacing the screw-lock mechanism found on the Uti 1 with a faster Snap-In system. The brown G10 handle, 5Cr15MoV steel blade, and Kizer Button Liner Lock™ combine to create a functional tool for frequent use, where quick and easy replacement of a worn blade is essential.
The Utility blade is 70.50 mm long, has a flat grind, and a bead-blasted finish. Weighing 87.10 g, it remains a handy tool, and five spare blades, a steel toothpick, and tweezers enhance the set’s practicality. The reversible deep-carry clip allows for comfortable carrying on either side of the handle.
5Cr15MoV – steel tailored to the utility nature of the Uti 2
5Cr15MoV offers good corrosion resistance and is easy to sharpen, making it well-suited for a knife intended for regular utility work. The 56–58 HRC hardness range allows the edge to be restored relatively quickly, and when the blade becomes heavily worn, the Snap-In system allows it to be replaced with one of the spare blades.
Utility, Flat, and Bead Blasted
The utility blade profile provides a practical cutting edge for cutting cardboard, tape, plastic film, and other everyday materials. The flat grind supports good cutting performance, while the bead-blasted finish gives the surface an even, matte appearance and reduces glare.
Brown G10 and Quick Snap-In System
Brown G10 grips provide a durable, rugged handle. The most significant change from the Uti 1 is the screwless Snap-In system, which simplifies blade replacement and eliminates the need to unscrew fasteners. The Button Liner Lock™ stabilizes the blade during use, and additional tools are stored directly in the Handle.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for 5Cr15MoV steel?
After use, clean the blade of any material residue and moisture, then dry it thoroughly. With proper care, 5Cr15MoV performs well as a low-maintenance steel for everyday use.
How to sharpen 5Cr15MoV?
You can use standard water stones, ceramic stones, or guide systems for sharpening. Its moderate hardness means the steel responds relatively quickly to abrasives and does not require specialized diamond stones.
How does the Snap-In system work in the Uti 2?
Snap-In allows you to replace the blade without unscrewing the mounting screws. This feature reduces the time needed to install a new blade and distinguishes the Uti 2 from the screw-based system used in the Uti 1.
How does the Kizer Button Liner Lock™ work?
The liner stabilizes the blade when it’s open, while the button allows you to release the lock without directly moving the liner. This solution simplifies folding the knife and ensures comfortable operation of the mechanism.
What comes with the Kizer C01C Uti 2?
The set includes five spare blades, a steel toothpick, and steel tweezers. The toothpick and tweezers are stored in the Handle, making them an integral part of the knife’s everyday equipment.
