The ultimate folding companion to the Marine Utility: Fighter Flipper
We believe we have created the best folding knife inspired by the classic Marine Utility ever made.

Solid, decisive, surprisingly versatile: this knife is just as comfortable at work as it is in your pocket during a walk around town. Every detail is designed to impress: from the retro finish of the scales to the drop-point blade, the integrated knob handle, and the pocket clip with integrated ball bearing—a detail never seen before.

In the world of knives, there is nothing comparable to the Fighter Flipper™. A true force of nature that invites you to strike, pierce, and crush. Use it with caution: it unleashes pure power.

The Kudu Hunter fixed-blade knife offers an excellent balance between form and function: the wide drop point blade is reminiscent of its predecessor model Harpoon, but without the dedicated thumb rest. The handle is extremely comfortable for different types of grips, and its shape does not cause fatigue during long periods of use. The Kydex scabbard has a Kydex belt loop that allows you to switch between normal belt carry and scout carry, right or left handed, with ease. This is truly an excellent "all-around" design by Andre.

Takeshi Saji was born in 1948 in Takefu (Fukui prefecture), a city located roughly in the center of Japan and in the heart of an area for centuries devoted to the production of blades. His lab is still there, built around the oven thanks to which, for several years now, Takeshi Saji forge steel (especially damascus) with which he made various models of traditional Japanese knives. The choice of materials for finishing (mainly natural), the essential lines - evocative use - and the color combinations of rare impact his accomplishments make unique and unmistakable in view of the cutlery world and at home, have earned him the prestigious Master title.
