A clean design that does not go unnoticed.

Designed by award-winning designer Richard Rogers, the Q Compact proves that simplicity can be extremely functional and attractive. Lightweight and well-balanced, it features an intuitive Crossbar Lock, a low-profile flipper, and a fuller along the entire blade that allows for different opening modes. The 14C28N steel drop point blade guarantees excellent cutting performance, while the fiberglass-reinforced nylon handle, in a refined light blue color, ensures a solid grip while keeping the overall weight to a minimum. Ideal for those looking for performance, practicality, and style in a compact format.
