I've always liked the atmosphere of old black-and-white cinema. Especially French noir. The shadows, the contrasts, the characters in turtlenecks and berets, looking like they're having very important conversations over a cup of black coffee.

I have tried to channel this feel in a monochrome setup on these ARN slipjoint folders featuring nailnick and ZIRCONIUM inlays. As a new thing I am introducing a bundle deal with this drop of 9 pieces. Get the ARN, a clip delete insert tab and a leather slip. Normal price for this set is $995. Bundle deal at $945

The ARN is a slipjoint folder featuring the same double-detent system used in my Monte Carlo and Casino custom models. This mechanism securely holds the blade open and closed without a traditional lock, offering a safe and compliant everyday carry option in most regions.

The handle integrates a precision-machined T-slot inlay system. A single screw secures the ambidextrous titanium clip. When the clip is removed, both inlays can slide out effortlessly without tools. A small titanium insert can replace the clip, locking the inlays in place and preserving the handle’s symmetry.

A central element of the ARN is the inlay system. We offer a wide range of inlay materials that allows you to change the look of your knife in a matter of seconds.
