What We Like

  • Innovative crossbar lock with Ball Roll Bar for smoothness
  • Swappable adjustable scale (SAS) system for easy customization
  • Smooth caged ceramic ball bearing pivot assembly

The Vombat features a sharp 2.92" M390 claw blade housed in a neutral, ergonomic, CNC-textured aluminum body. Blade shape options include both Bowie and Zulu styles. We didn't hold back on the jimps—our signature dual jimping on the spine enhances precision cutting, while additional jimping at the rear of the handle provides better control. For added versatility, the triple standoff system also allows for lanyard attachment and improved grip. It's the perfect blend of "wow" and "oh yes!"—ready to slice through your tasks like a wombat digging through the earth. Pro tip: Keep it away from your koala friends—they might get jealous.   1. Swappable Adjustable Scale (Patent Pending) (1) Swappable Scales
 The Vombat features a crossbar lock mechanism with a quick-swap scale system.
Simply unscrew the scale screws, and you're ready to swap in new scales! To make it even better, you can 3D print your own handle scales and create a custom look. (2) Adjustable Tension
 The SAS system also allows for easy adjustment of the omega spring tension via the music note indicators on the liners. (3) Adjustable Tightness and Centering
 A dedicated service hole on the pocket-clip side of the scale lets you conveniently fine-tune the blade's tightness and centering. 2. Sandwich-Inspired Crossbar Construction Traditional crossbar knives are built around the pivot sets, making disassembly and reassembly time-consuming. 
With our innovative sandwich-inspired system, we've simplified the process:
Just stack the layers, tighten the screws, and add the scales as the final step—no struggle, no hassle. All body screws are T8, so there's no need to switch screwdrivers mid-assembly. 3. Ball Roll Bar (Patent Pending) The Vombat features a unique locking structure with a centrally placed, lathed spherical element. This small but powerful innovation improves the lock's smoothness, reduces friction, and enhances the long-term reliability of the crossbar mechanism. 4. Wire Clip Plate (Patent Pending) The wire clip comes with a aluminum deco plate—yes, it's a wombat thing. This cubic plate can be laser-etched with your personal logo, adding a touch of customization to your carry.   5.
