Kizer Vanguard Begleiter Mini Reverse Tanto Satin N690 Red Paper Micarta Folder V3458RN3

A smaller version of the popular full sized Begleiter, the Begleiter Mini is part of the utilitarian Vanguard Series from Kizer and offers performance and high quality construction in a budget friendly platform. Clean and simple, this liner lock folder sports a flat ground reverse Tanto blade in place of the original straight spine blade with a ball bearing pivot for fast deployment. This version has a satin finished N690 blade and red paper Micarta scales.

Brand new, direct from Kizer Cutlery.

Blade: The simple, fully flat ground reverse Tanto point blade has a stylish satin finish while being rugged and utilitarian in design. Made from Bohler N690 stainless steel, the blade is easy to maintain with balanced performance in daily use. A ball bearing pivot makes deployment fast and smooth via the dual thumb studs, with jimping on the spine added for traction and control.

Handle: Proud stainless steel liners support milled paper Micarta handle scales for good traction and modern performance. The liners are skeletonized for weight reduction and balance, and ride proud to the scales for a more contoured feel while being thin to carry. One liner forms the locking mechanism and is smooth to operate, delivering secure, solid lockup for safe use. Construction is completed with satin hardware, dual barrel spacers and a lanyard hole cutout.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up, stainless steel deep carry clip.

Bohler N690: N690 is a high quality stainless steel, considered an upgrade to 440C. It has higher hardness and wear resistance for better edge retention while sacrificing some toughness. Corrosion resistance is high, at or better than VG-10. Easy to sharpen, this is a well-balanced steel for daily carry and use.
