Tradecraft CANK (complete knife system)
Unit price per
We brought the Tradecraft CANK to market as a means of offering an effective and reliable 100% handmade full-custom blade at an affordable price. Based off the tried and true EDC CANK (unquestionably one of the most effective EDC blades ever designed or produced). Thinner, lighter, and more streamlined than the original EDC CANK, this Tradecraft version features supreme concealability, extreme toughness, exemplary ease-of-carry, quick access, and incredible functionality through superior design. Tradecraft CANKs are basic yet effective purpose driven blades.
We produce this purely functional variant of our legendary EDC CANK design from top quality materials with a minimalistic approach. Tough, hard, and durable 1095 steel that’s professionally heat treated in house ensures a lifetime of carry. The cord wrapped handle provides exceptional grip in all conditions and will not warp, swell, or crack in extreme temperatures. The Night Raid is wrapped in bulletproof black Kevlar and then epoxy infused to create what is essentially a permanent handle that cannot come unwrapped. The Modern Warrior version features our proprietary "Gray Man Tan" paracord, wrapped over an epoxy infused sisal pre-wrap. Both versions feature a powder-coated finish that’s one of the toughest knife coatings available today.
The “Night Raid” edition is the all black version recommended for environments where harsh chemicals, extreme heat, or hard impacts are a concern due to the protective properties of it’s Kevlar para-aramid handle. The “Modern Warrior” version was designed for covert operations as its constructed entirely from natural colorway low-viz materials.
These knives represent what we believe to be the first ever truly effective deep cover blades publicly available at an affordable price. They are very thin, light, and sharp. They are tools, not toys, and like anything else they can be dangerous to the user when proper use or carry protocols are disregarded. They are not designed for prying, metal to metal contact, carry without sheath, or throwing. Each knife is individually handmade and therefore will differ slightly from the pictures.
