MKC The Montana Black Consignment

About this item

Montana Knife Company The Montana Designed by Master Bladesmith Josh Smith, who spent over 30 years building high-end custom liner lock folders, The Montana brings that same level of precision and performance into an everyday carry format as Montana Knife Company's first production folder. Key Specs Brand: Montana Knife Company Model: The Montana Design: Liner Lock Folder Blade Steel: MagnaCut Stainless Steel Blade Length: 3 1/4" Overall Length: 7 5/8" Closed Length: 4.31" Blade Thickness: 0.118" Weight: 2.84 oz Handle Material: G-10 Blade Finish: Stonewash Origin: Made in the USA, Hand Finished in Montana Handcrafted Quality As Montana Knife Company's first production folder, The Montana was developed with a team of engineers and machinists to match the standards of Josh's custom work, and every detail reflects that commitment. The MagnaCut stainless steel blade features a full flat grind taken to an exceptionally thin edge for outstanding cutting performance, and after heat treatment the blade is returned to the mill for critical finishing, a step rarely seen in production knives and a testament to the precision involved. The handle is built with hardened liners that run the full length, directing force into compression for added strength and durability. G-10 scales with a 3D-milled micro-texture provide a secure grip, while titanium hardware and a deep-carry pocket clip with flush-mounted screws complete the clean, functional design. Measuring just 4.31 inches closed and only 0.45 inches thick, it carries easily in any pocket. Smooth deployment comes from a hardened stainless pivot paired with custom bronze-cage bearings and silicon nitride balls, delivering a consistent, refined action. This particular example is an R&D model, an early development piece that predates standard production runs, making it a rare and hard-to-find variant for collectors. It is here on consignment, offering a unique opportunity to own an early piece of The Montana's history. This knife is being sold on consignment. It is new, never used, and remains in excellent, like-new condition. All consignment sales are final.
