FEATURES

A LEGEND RETURNS — THE EVOLUTION OF T1
The T1 returns as part of the Ki series upgrade, combining its iconic clean design with modern performance. Featuring its signature 3D contoured ergonomics for maximum control, the refined handle follows the natural curve of the hand for a secure and comfortable grip. Subtle improvements enhance overall handling—without losing its original character. Not a reissue, but the evolution of a modern classic.

M390 & ELMAX — PREMIUM BLADE STEEL OPTIONS
The T1 series offers two premium blade steel options, each selected for exceptional performance in everyday carry. ELMAX steel, manufactured in Sweden using powder metallurgy technology, provides an excellent balance of hardness, toughness, and corrosion resistance. This makes it a versatile choice for users who value durability and reliability. The steels are engineered to deliver consistent cutting performance, ensuring the T1 remains dependable through daily use.

KIZER BUTTON LINER LOCK™
The T1 lineup features two lock options, each designed to provide secure blade lockup and smooth one-handed operation. The Kizer Clutch Lock™ offers ambidextrous control and smooth deployment when paired with the thumb stud. Its stable engagement and reliable lockup make it ideal for everyday carry.

VERSATILE DROP POINT BLADE
The drop point blade offers an excellent balance between precision and durability, making it one of the most versatile blade shapes for everyday carry. Its strong tip supports precise cutting tasks, while the curved belly provides efficient slicing performance for common tasks such as opening packages, cutting rope, or preparing food outdoors. Strategically placed jimping along the spine enhances thumb traction, providing improved control and stability during demanding cutting tasks.

DESIGNED FOR MODERN EDC
The T1 integrates a range of practical features designed to enhance everyday usability. A deep-carry reversible pocket clip allows discreet and secure carry for both left- and right-handed users. The integrated lanyard hole offers additional portability and customization options for different carry preferences. Combined with ergonomic finger grooves and a balanced handle profile, these details provide a comfortable and confident experience during daily tasks.
