Kubey knife Royal KU321U Purple Linerlock EDC Folding Knife – Stonewash 14C28N Clip Point Blade with Textured Purple G10 Handles & Ceramic Bearings
If you’re searching for a lightweight, eye-catching everyday carry folding knife that balances practical performance with standout styling, the Kubey Royal KU321U Linerlock is a fantastic option. Designed by Colin Maisonpierre, this compact ambidextrous folder is built for general EDC chores and light outdoor tasks, with a full lifetime manufacturer warranty covering all craftsmanship defects.
Its cutting core is a 2.99-inch clip point blade crafted from reliable 14C28N stainless steel. After professional vacuum and cryogenic heat treatment, the blade reaches HRC 60–62 hardness, holding a sharp plain edge sharpened at a 15°–20° angle for clean slicing. The flat grind maximizes cutting efficiency, while a matte stonewash blade finish hides minor scratches and fingerprints, preserving a rugged, worn-in look after frequent use. At just 0.12 inches thick, the blade delivers nimble cutting without sacrificing structural strength.
The handle is constructed from vibrant purple textured G10, a durable composite material that delivers consistent grip even in damp or slippery conditions. The textured surface eliminates slip during long cutting sessions, paired with a trusted stainless steel liner lock with sandblast finish that securely locks the blade open during heavy use. Caged ceramic ball bearings sit at the pivot, enabling silky-smooth one-handed opening for both left and right-handed users.
All metal hardware including the pocket clip, pivot cap, liner, filler tab and screws uses stainless steel with matching sandblast coating for a cohesive muted silver aesthetic against the purple scales. The reversible tip-up clip supports left or right-side pocket carry, letting users customize their carry setup freely. Weighing only 3.22 oz (94 g) with an overall length of 7.28 inches, the Royal KU321U is slim and pocket-friendly, never weighing you down during daily commutes or short hikes.
Blending dependable 14C28N steel, smooth bearing action, vibrant purple G10 styling and compact lightweight sizing, the Kubey Royal KU321U linerlock folder is a versatile, distinctive EDC choice for collectors and casual outdoor users alike.
