More Than a Knife. An Engineering Artefact.
When you pick up the Xenos, you feel not the cold of metal, but the warmth of human craftsmanship. This is not stamping, not an assembly line — this is an integral construction, where the handle is milled from a single block of crystallised titanium, CristalTi. There are no unnecessary joints, no weak points. Just a monolith, created for those who seek a soul in their tools.
Wharncliffe Blade – For Those Who Know Precision Cutting
We deliberately chose the Wharncliffe shape — a straight spine and a razor‑sharp tip. Yes, it's not a generalist, but it is a dagger of precision.
-
Blade length: 112 mm (perfect balance for pocket and hand).
-
Spine thickness: 4 mm (strength reserve for any scenario).
-
Edge thickness: 0.2 mm (this is a razor that slices paper with a whisper).
-
Blade width: 41 mm — offering an excellent surface for slicing.
The tip is refined — it's not for prying nails; it's for precision work: opening envelopes, stripping cables, making clean cuts in leather. Professional chefs will appreciate it in a "kitchen grip" — on flat cutting boards, it performs like a fine Japanese santoku.
Tmax Steel – An Accessible Analogue of M390
Under the hood is high‑quality powdered steel Tmax. In composition and performance, it is very close to the legendary Austrian M390. This means:
-
Exceptional wear resistance — the edge holds for months of daily use.
-
Corrosion resistance on par with damascus steel — unfazed by sweat or moisture.
-
Hardness around 60–61 HRC — the perfect balance between cutting performance and toughness.
The powder metallurgy process yields a uniform, fine‑grained structure, making the blade easy to sharpen even on ceramic rods.
Integral Handle from CristalTi – Lightness and Strength
With a handle length of 145 mm and a total weight of just 152 grams, this is a marvel of titanium ergonomics. The profile thickness is 12.9 mm — the knife fits your hand like it was made for it, without feeling heavy.
The main visual highlight is the through‑holes with straight lines and thin bridges. They are not just decoration — they:
-
Reduce weight without sacrificing rigidity.
-
Play with light, creating a dynamic pattern with every turn.
-
Resemble the scales of a mythical reptile — a nod to the "lizard‑like" concept highly prized by collectors.
The holes are echoed on the back of the handle near the pommel and on the black titanium pocket clip. The clip itself is large, springy, and grips the pocket securely — you won't lose your Xenos even on the most active trips.
Flawless Flipper and Precision Assembly
The pivot is built on ceramic bearings — the blade deploys with a single click, just like premium customs. The action is smooth, with no hitching, thanks to precise tuning. The brand logo is neatly milled on a flat section of the spine — minimalist and tasteful.
Who Is This Knife For?
The Xenos is the choice of:
-
The collector tired of mass‑produced, identical models.
-
The EDC enthusiast who values tactile feedback and unconventional design.
-
The craftsman who needs a tool for delicate, precision cuts.
This is a limited‑edition run — such knives don't sit on every desk. They await their owner — someone who will appreciate both the complexity of execution and the boldness of form.
