Frequently Asked Questions
What is the blade length of the Kansept Prickle T1012A5?
The Kansept Prickle T1012A5 has a 3.53" blade. This Black TiCN-coated 154CM drop point blade is 3.53 inches long — an ideal EDC size that fits both suit and jeans for everyday tasks.
What steel is used in the Kansept Prickle T1012A5?
The Kansept Prickle T1012A5 uses 154CM steel. 154CM is a high-carbon stainless steel known for excellent edge retention, good corrosion resistance, and easy maintenance, and the Black TiCN coating adds extra wear resistance and a sleek tactical look.
What handle material does the Kansept Prickle T1012A5 have?
The Kansept Prickle T1012A5 features an ergonomic brown Micarta handle. Micarta is a durable, lightweight composite that offers a warm, smooth gripping surface comfortable in the pocket or hand, with grip that improves when wet.
What lock type does the Kansept Prickle T1012A5 use?
The Kansept Prickle T1012A5 uses a liner lock. A liner lock uses a spring-tensioned internal liner that snaps behind the blade tang when open, allowing secure, reliable one-hand operation and easy closing.
What is a front flipper knife?
The Kansept Prickle T1012A5 is a front flipper, meaning the flipper tab sits on the front of the handle near the blade spine rather than the rear. This gives the Kansept Prickle T1012A5 a fidgety, satisfying deployment and a clean, gentlemanly profile when closed.
Is the Kansept Prickle T1012A5 a good EDC knife?
Yes — the Kansept Prickle T1012A5 pairs a compact 8.06" overall footprint with a confident 3.53" 154CM blade and grippy Micarta scales, making it a versatile, pocket-friendly everyday carry. Its milled pocket clip holds the knife securely for dependable daily use.
