Vosteed
Mink - Fixed Blade Knife (3.33" Nitro-V Blade & Micarta Handle) - D0101
What We Like
- Durable full-tang Nitro-V blade with HRC 60 hardness for excellent edge retention
- Ergonomic Micarta handle with frag-pattern milling and guard for secure grip
- Versatile Kydex sheath with adjustable belt clip for multiple carry positions
- Compact 3.33" blade with flat grind excels at cutting and slicing tasks
- Dual jimping on blade spine enables precise control for detailed cuts
Considerations
- Fixed blade design limits quick one-handed deployment compared to folders
- 145g weight is heavier than most EDC folding knives for everyday carry
- No locking mechanism (standard for fixed blades but limits heavy-duty use)
Overview
The Mink is a modern interpretation of a traditional blade.

The Blade
The Vosteed Mink is a sleek, compact, and practical modern cutting tool.
The Nitro-V Full-Tang Clip Point blade provides an amazing combination of durability, strength, practicality, affordability, and ease of maintenance.
The tall flat grind, well-curved belly, and pointy tip excel at cutting and slicing.
Dual Jimping
On the blade spine, the Mink has a purposefully engineered dual-section jimping system, which makes it great for jobs like push cuts and precision cuts.
The Handle
The micarta handle is securely screwed to the Full-Tang blade.
Frag-pattern is milled on the ergonomic handles to provide secure and comfortable control even in adversarial environments.
The solid guard (front quillon) further enhances usability and user safety in harsh conditions.
The Sheath
The Mink is equipped with a black Kydex sheath and an adjustable clip, which provide great blade retention and multi-position carry options. In addition, the built-in lanyard hole allows the user to further customize the Mink.
