Kansept Korvid XL Unboxing - Pocket Cleaver with 154CM Blade Steel and Natural Micarta Scales

The Kansept Korvid XL has pretty much grown on me since I got it. Flicking it open with this flipper tab, thumb studs, or giant fuller just never gets old.

The long list of opening methods might be part of the reason why this pocket cleaver looks funny, weird, and unexpected, all the same time. So, whenever I flick this knife open it’s a real attraction and I love to see people go Wow instead of woah when they realize what just happened.

Kansept makes these puppies in 3 different sizes and a whole bunch of different colors. The one that you see in my hand is the extra-large Korvid but even though it looks like a giant it is still very practical. I really enjoy the contrast of these lighter tone Micarta scales and the completely blacked out hardware.

The Korvid arrives in this pretty cool Kansept box alongside an encyclopedia, a cleaning cloth, and a nylon bag. And it has smooth, snappy action right from day one.

My Korvid comes with a 154CM blade steel, which is not a fancy powder steel, but does what it has to do. And in my testing, it surpassed my D2 pocketknives in every single way and it also takes a very nice, keen edge. So, I highly recommend trying it - especially on a badass cleaver, like this one!
