Oftentimes, the heaviest part of your EDC will be your EDC knife. And while a large blade might be useful for most tasks, sometimes its full length and weight isn’t needed, and your pocket space would be better used carrying other EDC gear. The Ruike S11 is a compact knife designed to give you all the utility a sharp blade provides without any of the bulk. When closed, this folding knife measures only 2.79“, with a 2.1” blade made from 12C27 stainless steel and an overall length of 4.8“ when deployed via its nail nick. G10 scales ensure a secure grip even while wearing gloves or when things get wet, an important factor for a smaller knife. To finish things off, the Ruike S11 weighs in at only 1.06 oz, disappearing inside your pockets until you need to use it.
