Brutal Blades & Pocket Perfection! Best New Knives 2025 | Fixed & Folding | AK Blade

Get ready for a premium steel cutting edge experience on this week’s AK Blade! Cee & Just Jul are back with a blade drop that mixes hard use, collector-tier steel, and a few head-turning surprises. First up is the Shed US Tanto 2025, a handmade American fixed blade that’s all muscle with its full-thickness 0.24" blade and all-USA materials—pure, no-nonsense craftsmanship. Then we flip the switch to sleek and modern with the Spyderco Essenza, a stylish collaboration with FOX Knives boasting N690 steel and a clean aluminum handle. Civivi’s in the spotlight too with not one but two standouts: the Sokn fixed blade, a sharp and stealthy workhorse built to go the distance, and the Mini Praxis Limited Edition, dressed in FAT arctic blue carbon fiber and upgraded to S35VN for their 11th anniversary—only 2,014 made! We’re also bringing the heat with the Kansept Apollo, a titanium-framed stunner with carbon fiber or Timascus overlays that scream premium EDC. And rounding it all out, the Boker Toxicofera, a rugged micarta-handled fixed blade with 440A steel, ready to take a beating and keep cutting.
