The Kizer C01C 2.9 BS V3488.29BSA2 is a compact EDC folder designed by Sheepdog Knives, featuring a Nitro-V steel Sheepsfoot blade and a black Micarta handle.

The 74.97 mm blade features a flat grind and a satin finish that highlights the model’s simple geometry. The black Micarta provides a secure grip and complements the milled surfaces, textured spine, and finger choil. The knife weighs 95.20 g and can be carried on a reversible deep-carry clip.
Nitro-V – A Practical Balance of Properties
Nitro-V offers good corrosion resistance, adequate toughness, and ease of sharpening, making it well-suited for everyday use. A hardness of 60–61 HRC ensures reasonable edge retention without hindering subsequent resharpening.
Sheepsfoot, Flat, and Satin
The Sheepsfoot profile provides a long, controlled edge and reduces the aggressiveness of the tip, which increases precision during everyday tasks. The flat grind supports smooth cutting, and the satin finish gives the blade a classic, clean look that pairs well with the black Micarta handle.
Black Micarta and Kizer Button Liner Lock™
Black Micarta provides a secure grip and may develop a more unique surface character over time. Milled sides, a textured spine, and a finger choil enhance control during use. The Kizer Button Liner Lock™ stabilizes the blade when open and allows for convenient release of the mechanism with a button.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for Nitro-V steel?
After use, clean the blade and remove any moisture and dirt from it. Regular maintenance helps keep the steel in good condition and reduces the buildup of debris in the knife’s mechanism.
How do I sharpen Nitro-V?
The steel responds well to water stones, ceramic sharpeners, and guide systems. Thanks to its moderate resistance to abrasion, you can restore sharpness relatively quickly without needing to use specialized diamond materials.
What sharpening angle should be used?
The manufacturer does not specify a single required sharpening angle for this model. The best approach is to restore the factory geometry or adjust the angle to suit the type of work being performed.
How does the Kizer Button Liner Lock™ work?
The liner locks the blade in place once it is open, while the button allows for convenient release. This design combines the mechanics of a classic Liner Lock with easier operation when folding the knife.
What are the characteristics of a Micarta handle?
Micarta provides a secure, comfortable grip and performs well during extended use. Over time, the material’s surface may change in appearance and develop a unique patina resulting from how it’s used.
