We love the look of the blade shape on the Artisan Cutlery Falcon. It’s a squared off tanto with a very slightly curved edge and an great little swedge that starts about midway down the blade. As always there are plenty of options when it comes to Artisan knives. You can choose your steel and your handle materials to fit your budget. No matter your choice, you end up with a great knife.
This medium sized flipper features a 3.62” tanto blade. It’s available in D2 (model numbers 1809P), S35VN, or M390 steel (model numbers 1809G) with either a stonewash or satin finish. The steel on each model has been hardened to a 58-60 HRC.
The ceramic ball bearing pivot assembly ensures a quick and smooth opening on every model. The D2 knives have an aluminum frame with either G10 or carbon fiber inserts. The S35VN and M390 versions have a titanium frame with carbon fiber inserts.
A framelock secures the S35VN and M390 knives, and the D2 has a linerlock. Each knife in the Falcon line has an ambidextrous pocketclip and lanyard hole.
