Victorinox Farmer X Alox Damast Limited Edition 2024
If you want to stand out from the pack, it’s always a good idea to check the limited editions regularly put out by Victorinox. Take the new Farmer X Alox Damast Limited Edition, for example, which builds an elegant black and steel tone knife with an added touch of brilliance and a Damasteel folding blade.
The Farmer X Alox Damast Limited Edition takes the rugged and useful design of the Farmer X, with its serrated saw blade and screwdrivers, and elevates it with the Alox metal scales (with a color exclusively for 2024), which add additional durability and grip to the Swiss Army Knife. But the true star of the show is the 115-layer Damasteel blade that has a unique Hakkapella pattern with a hardness grade of 60 HRC, making it tougher than the standard SAK. What you get is a blade that looks as sharp as it can cut and a premium feel that’s a cut above the standard Farmer X, making it a great choice if you’re looking to add to your daily rotation. It’s limited to 7,000 sequentially numbered pieces worldwide so don’t wait too long if you want to get it.

CRKT Nucleus Frame Lock Knife
CPM MagnaCut is one of the most sought-after steels for EDC enthusiasts who demand the best out of their pocket knives, and CRKT incorporates it beautifully in their Nucleus Frame Lock Knife. Designed by custom knifemaker Princeton Wong, the Nucleus is inspired by the mecha robots from the Mobile Suit Gundam series, which is reflected in the knife’s futuristic design. The Nucleus weighs only 2.30 oz thanks partly to its titanium and carbon fiber handle, making it both strong and lightweight. It can be easily deployed in three different ways – using the front flipper, rear flipper, or the finger hole in the blade – thanks to its smooth IKBS ball-bearing pivot.
Besides its eye-catching aesthetics; the Nucleus is built for serious performance. Its frame lock utilizes a thick lock bar to ensure that the blade remains secure during rigorous use. The 3.23” blade, crafted from MagnaCut steel, offers best-in-class performance with exceptional toughness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. The blade’s stonewashed finish and distinctive milling, along with the drilled holes for added flair, make this knife stand out in any collection. Available in additional material options such as 12C27 steel with a stainless steel handle and G10 overlay, the Nucleus caters to various preferences while maintaining its attractive design and functionality.

WE Knife Zizzit
Modern high-end knife designs all tend to feature premium durable steels hardened for excellent cutting potential and maximum sharpness. Their blade shapes are both an aesthetic and functional choice because they are one of the primary determinants of the overall ergonomic ease of use for the pocket knife. But designs that take the time to feature a compound edge on the blade itself are relatively rare. The new WE Knife ZIzzit flipper knife adds to this select few, with a special CPM-20CV blade that’s been optimized for your everyday carry needs.
Where most blades feature one style of blade grind, the We Knife Zizzit features a compound edge, with a hollow-ground belly and a flat ground tip for the blade. The combination drop point and spear point edge blade is a result of this design choice, which gives the belly increased slicing capability while enhancing the piercing performance and rigidity of the tip of the knife. The flat grind of the tip also makes it easier to touch up and repair independently in case of damage during regular use. With a 3.8” overall length, sturdy button lock, and titanium hardware, you’re going to find a lot of use for the We Knife Zizzit when you add it to your everyday carry loadout.
