The Aperture is a striking collaboration with Brian Nadeau of Sharp by Design, capturing the spirit of his renowned custom knives in an accessible everyday carry format. With its unique "aperture" window integrated into the handle, the design brings a modern aesthetic and functional flair to this compact flipper.
Engineered with a 3.14-inch blade made from premium D2 steel, the Aperture boasts a Rockwell hardness of 59-60, ensuring excellent edge retention and toughness. The handle, available in canvas Micarta or machined G10, provides a comfortable grip without sacrificing sleekness. Ceramic ball bearings enable lightning-fast deployment via an index finger flipper, making it incredibly satisfying to use right out of the box.
This knife is not only hand-finished and razor-sharp on arrival, but it also features a deep carry clip for discreet and secure pocket carry. Compact enough for daily use but designed with premium materials and thoughtful details, the Aperture hits that perfect balance between style and function.
