Overview
FUNCTIONAL AND EFFECTIVE BLADE
The Valkyrie has two types of blade shapes, namely modified Seax and Sheepsfoot.
Our modified Seax blade has a slightly curved edge, which is intended for fine work, and utility cuts with your maximum leverage. The pointy tip is great for detailed work and makes it more easily penetrate anything with minimum effort than other blade shapes.
The Sheepsfoot blade would be less threatening with its rounded tip while it is perfect for slicing and cutting. The nearly straight-line cutting edge ensures you clean cuts and clear cuts.
INTUITIVE DEPLOYMENT
The Trek Lock (designed by Yue)perfectly combines multi-deployment options for ultimate playability.
With the assistance of a ceramic ball-bearing pivot system and Trek Lock, you are able to enjoy the endearing charm of Thumbstud, standard flipper, and front flipper deployment.
SLIM AND SLEEK HANDLE
The Valkyrie comes in black, green, and gray G10 scales.
The handle shape is uncomplicated and built to last. With a well-thought-out finger groove, it ensures you a great degree of control over precise cuts.
With a 4.36" closed length, it simply disappears in your pocket. A winning choice for minimalist carry.
