Kizer designer Azo delivers a masterful cutting tool with a symphony of style in the Maestro flipper. Robust enough for heavy use, the Maestro’s two-tone satin blade, contrasting black handle and stylish geometric milling walk the line between gentleman’s daily carry and hard use tactical. This version comes with a CPM-S35VN stainless steel blade, titanium handle and clip.

Brand new directly from Kizer Cutlery.

Blade: Deployment options are plentiful on the Maestro thanks to a flipper tab, dual thumb studs and a large chamfered blade hole. A ball bearing pivot and dialed in detent make deployment fast, smooth and decisive, while the two-tone satin finished S35VN delivers a classy look, contrasting nicely with the black handle. The saber ground reverse Tanto offers solid durability in piercing and slicing, easily capable of heavy work, and Wharncliffe like cutting power with the added versatility of edge belly.

Handle: Titanium handle slabs are internally and externally milled for weight reduction, balance and eye-catching style with a black coated finish for contrast. Chamfered for comfort, the handle has a substantial heft while being well-balanced and offers excellent traction thanks to the milled pockets and coffin shape, with the flipper tab guard offering added safety in use. One slab is cut with the integral frame lock and equipped with a steel lock face and over travel stop for reliable, rock solid operation and safe use. Satin hardware rounds out the construction, with blue pivot collars for a pop of color and an inline lanyard pin. Includes a Velcro nylon pouch for storage.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up, 3D machined titanium pocket clip.
