How a Flea Market Find Brought an Iconic EDC Knife Back to Life

Stiff, Lightweight, & Resistant

The Carbon Fiber Mariner 2 offers the best of both worlds – rigid titanium on one side to provide structure for the knife and 3D machined pocket clip, and a carbon fiber accent on the other to add some personality.

Manufactured From Premium Materials

Bob Terzuola was one of the first knifemakers to integrate modern materials into his designs like, for example, utilizing titanium as his go-to handle material which was a 'space age' and rare commodity at the time for smaller makers. We stayed true to his pioneering spirit with the Grade 5 titanium handles and 3D milled clip but upgraded the blade to top-of-the-line MagnaCut steel.

About Limited Releases

First Come, First Served

Every once in a while we do small batches to try out new material and finish combinations. These "Limited Releases" allow us to have some fun coming up with new ideas and gives you, the customer, options beyond our standard catalog. Fair warning: once they sell out there's no telling if or when they'll be made again so grab one while you can.
