Krotos — Elegant Simplicity Meets Advanced Technology
The Krotos is a model for those who appreciate elegant simplicity and cutting‑edge technology in their everyday tool. Thoughtful ergonomics, distinctive triangular milled grooves on the handle, and a record‑low weight make this knife the ideal companion for urban life — it's so light that you simply forget it's in your pocket.
The Krotos's standout feature is three completely different finish variants, each changing the mood and character of the knife, allowing you to choose the perfect match for your style.
Three Finish Variants — Three Moods
-
Grey Beadblast – classic restraint. The handle and clip are beadblasted, creating a matte, velvety surface. A monochrome design with no extra accents — strict, practical, and versatile. The ideal choice for those who prefer understated minimalism.
-
DLC + CrystalTi – high‑tech contrast. The handle and blade are coated in wear‑resistant black DLC, creating a deep matte background. Visual accents come from crystallised titanium components with iridescent blue anodising: the thumb stud, clip, and pommel inserts. This variant gives the knife a futuristic, space‑age charm.
-
TiN + CrystalTi – luxurious and expressive. The blade flats, front flipper, and clip are coated in titanium nitride (TiN) in a noble golden‑yellow hue. Combined with the matte black handle base and crystallised titanium, this variant looks incredibly premium and striking, drawing attention with its boldness.
Note: In all variants, the main handle frame is crafted from high‑strength titanium with a distinctive crystalline texture (CrystalTi), ensuring a unique appearance and lightweight construction.
Technical Specifications and Engineering Solutions
-
Tmax steel blade – length 87 mm, spine thickness 3 mm, hardened to 61 HRC. This guarantees excellent edge retention, toughness, and reliability for everyday use. Depending on the chosen version, the blade features a DLC or TiN coating, adding both protective and aesthetic properties.

Record‑breaking lightness – with an overall length of 200 mm (folded – 113 mm), the knife weighs just 86 grams (±2 g). This is one of the lightest full‑sized folding knives in the lineup, achieved through a lightweight titanium construction.

Smooth action and reliable lock – the pivot is built on a precision ceramic bearing, delivering silky, instant deployment via the Thumb Stud. Blade lockup in the open position is secured by a reliable frame‑lock.
