Kizer Vanguard Original Button Lock Folding Knife 2.98" 154CM Black Drop Point Blade, Serape Series G10
The Original was designed by Kizer and features the same eye-catching Serape Series G10 scales and button lock mechanism as the Cormorant. The main difference between the two knives is that the Original knife has a classic shape and a straightforward handle shape. The Original also has a lower price point, which makes it easier for you to get one. Once in hand, you will find it is a very worthy addition to your collection of EDC folding knives.
Vanguard Series
The Vanguard Series brings excellent value to high-quality designs. Since the start of Kizer Cutlery, they have focused on the high end of the knife market with their impeccable quality and premium materials. This has earned them a place in the hearts of their fans. To increase the accessibility of Kizer brand products, they took the designs of the Bladesmith and Prime Series, and while keeping the quality at the same high level, re-forged them using materials that bring extra value for the money spent. Kizer uses only materials that have stellar performance, such as VG10 for the blades and G10 or stainless steel for the handles. This way, Kizer products are available at all budget levels but still maintain that incredible quality of construction.
Tools share a common goal and purpose. Kizer brings you the Vanguard Series created with the purpose of distilling the essence of the Bladesmith and Prime Series into tools that excel in being used. This may not be your only knife, but this will be the knife you carry and use every day!
