Overview
FEATURES
DRIVEN ADDITION - NEW MEMBER OF THE C01C FAMILYThe C01C 2.9 BS & CD joins the C01C lineup in response to the Kizer community requests. They loved the Mini C01C's compact feel but asked for a slightly longer blade for everyday tasks — we listened. Built on the proven Ki3488.29 platform (released in January), the V3488.29 introduces the same 2.95-inch blade but as a more affordable variant with new configurations. It is available in sheepfoot and drop point blade shapes, catering to different cutting preferences while retaining the unmistakable Sheepdog silhouette and ergonomics. Lock options include the Kizer Button Liner Lock and Kizer Clutch Lock, providing secure lockup, smooth one-handed operation, and confident control for daily carry. This isn't just a new version — it's a direct response to our community, offering the Sheepdog experience in a size and price point tuned for modern EDC.
KIZER CLUTCH LOCK™Designed for smooth, reliable one-handed operation and everyday confidence. The Kizer Clutch Lock™ provides fast, controlled action with excellent stability, ensuring dependable engagement even after repeated use. Both options can be paired with a thumb hole or thumb stud for intuitive deployment, delivering smooth operation, secure handling, and a refined feel that's perfectly suited for EDC.
BUILT TO PERFORM, FINISHED TO LASTThe blade is crafted from German-made Nitro-V stainless steel, designed to deliver exceptional toughness, strong corrosion resistance, and easy resharpening, making it ideal for everyday use and humid environments.
BLADE SHAPES FOR EVERYDAY TASKSWhether you prefer precision or enhanced safety, these blades are designed to handle everyday tasks with ease. The Drop Point blade offers a balanced profile combining accuracy and durability, perfect for opening packages, food prep, or handling bait. The Sheepfoot blade features a straight cutting edge with a gently curved spine and a blunted tip, providing a large cutting area, excellent control, and minimized risk of accidental punctures. Both designs deliver versatile performance, making them reliable companions for a wide range of EDC and daily utility needs.
ERGONOMIC HANDLESThe ergonomic handle is designed for a comfortable, secure grip during everyday use, offering both control and confidence in a variety of tasks. Norplex UltreX™ Micarta offers a rugged, non-slip texture for dependable handling in demanding situations.
ENHANCED CONTROL & DISCREET CARRYDesigned for both control and everyday discretion, the handle features grooved sides that improve grip while reducing weight, enhancing balance and handling precision. A textured spine and well-defined finger choil provide added stability, making cutting motions more accurate and comfortable. The deep-carry, reversible pocket clip ensures a secure, low-profile fit, allowing the knife to sit discreetly in the pocket while remaining ready for quick deployment.
