About Darac Steel Quintus Kwaiken Custom Knife

A previous Blade Show Exclusive knife from Dario Zadravec. The Darac Steel Quintus Kwaiken Custom Knife is a collector-grade custom folder that delivers its impact through precision, restraint, and premium execution. This preowned example is offered in mint condition and features a visually striking San Mai XHP blade, a clean titanium handle, and a matching San Mai clip. The actual knife has a dark, refined look with strong contrast in the blade steel and especially attractive jimping along the spine, giving this custom build both visual depth and a more tactile, finished feel.

A Custom Knife with Refined Kwaiken Lines

This is not a production knife. The Darac Steel Quintus Kwaiken is part of Dario Zadravec’s custom lineup and is built in the sleek, slender kwaiken style that many collectors appreciate for its clean profile and elegant carry. On Darac Steel’s official site, the maker lists the Quintus with blade steel options including San Mai, and gives the platform specs as 89 mm blade length, 3.2 mm blade thickness, 210 mm overall length, and 120 g weight, which closely aligns with the details provided for this knife.

What makes this particular custom knife stand out is the combination of premium materials and visual balance. The San Mai blade brings layered character and a more artful presentation than a plain mono-steel finish, while the titanium handle keeps the overall build crisp, modern, and understated. The result is a custom folding knife that feels equally suited to a serious collection, premium pocket carry, or a curated display of handmade international customs.

Dario Zadravec and Darac Steel

Dario Zadravec of Darac Steel is a full-time custom knifemaker based in Croatia. On his official site, he states that he made his first knife in 2008, has spent years refining his designs and grinding techniques, and operates a one-man workshop producing handmade knives on manual machines. Arizona Custom Knives reflects the same background, reinforcing the 2008 starting point and his progression into full-time custom knifemaking.

Darac Steel’s official site also shows the Quintus as part of his core model range alongside designs such as the Aston, Degman, Toucan, Toucan XXL, and Requin, which helps place this piece within a respected custom maker’s broader body of work.
