For those who appreciate simplicity without sacrificing performance, the K.I.S.S.® (Keep. It. Super. Simple.) folding knife is a game-changer. Originally designed by Knifemakers' Guild member Ed Halligan, this revolutionary two-piece design set the standard for minimalist everyday carry. Now, the latest version refines that legacy with upgraded materials, a sleek aesthetic, and unmatched functionality.
The K.I.S.S.® features a Tanto-inspired blade with a chisel-point grind on the front and a flat back. This unique design allows the blade to close seamlessly into the frame, effectively "sealing" the cutting edge against the handle while remaining partially exposed. The result? A compact, ultra-functional knife that maximizes efficiency without unnecessary bulk.
Designed for Practicality
Crafted with a brushed titanium nitride-coated stainless steel handle and blade, the K.I.S.S.® is built to withstand the rigors of daily use. It’s easy to sharpen, corrosion-resistant, and lightweight enough for effortless pocket carry. Adding to its utility, the pocket clip doubles as a money clip, helping reduce pocket clutter without compromising style or security.
