Bestech Knives Glok Folding Knife - Khaki
A folding EDC (Every Day Carry) knife featuring a Drop-Point blade. Engineered for daily tasks and outdoor adventures, this versatile folder is crafted by American designer Keanu Alfaro.
14C28N stainless steel and black Stonewash finish
The knife blade is crafted from 14C28N stainless steel, engineered by the Swedish manufacturer Sandvik. The material's chemical composition is refined for exceptional hardness. Optimal nitrogen levels ensure corrosion resistance is preserved while also enhancing edge retention. The presence of carbon delivers excellent cutting performance, and chromium ensures substantial protection against rust and oxidation.
A Black Stonewash technique has been applied to the blade surface, resulting in a non-reflective, rugged matte appearance. This finish efficiently minimizes glare and helps hide marks or scratches that can develop over time.
Drop-point profile blade, jimping
Equipped with a blade featuring a Drop-Point profile, this model offers a plain edge and measures 9 cm in length. Jimping is integrated into the spine of the blade, providing a reliable thumb rest and enhancing grip and control during precision cuts.
Handle scales made of G10 laminate, clip, and lanyard hole
The handle is fitted with G10 laminate scales in a khaki finish, constructed from layered glass fiber set in epoxy resin. An anti-slip texture along with a finger groove provides secure handling. The knife features a resilient steel clip (tip-up, right-side carry) as well as a hole for attaching a cord or lanyard.
Button lock mechanism, thumb disk, ball bearing
Equipped with a double-sided thumb disk, the knife enables effortless deployment for both right- and left-handed users. A Button Lock mechanism keeps the blade securely in place. The main pivot features a ball bearing, enhancing the speed and smoothness of the opening action.

14C28N
14C28N is a martensitic "nitro" stainless steel developed by the Swedish company Sandvik (now Alleima). Its chemical composition has been optimized to achieve high hardness through nitrogen (0.11%) rather than carbon, which maintains corrosion resistance and increases edge durability. The carbon content of 0.62% contributes to good cutting properties, while chromium (14%) ensures high resistance to rust and oxidation. After proper heat treatment, the steel achieves a hardness of 55-62 HRC, which provides an optimal balance between sharpness, strength, and corrosion resistance. Thanks to its fine-grained structure and ease of sharpening, 14C28N is a popular choice for the production of kitchen, EDC, hunting, and tactical knives.
Button Lock
Button Lock (also known as Plunge Lock) is a locking mechanism in folding knives based on a spring button. When fully opened, the tang enters a notch at the base of the blade and locks it in the working position; when closed, the same element acts as a detent. The design allows for smooth opening and closing with one hand and increases safety, as it does not require the user to place their fingers on the blade line. Thanks to its simplicity and reliability, the Button Lock is often used in EDC knives and collector's models.
G10
G10 is a lightweight and extremely durable material, considered one of the best for knife production. It is created by pressure-pressing fiberglass with phenolic resin, which gives it high durability and resistance to mechanical damage. It is chemically inert, does not conduct electricity, and retains its properties at both low and high temperatures. In terms of parameters, it is similar to carbon fiber, but its production is much cheaper. G10 handles are manufactured by precision cutting and cutting, which increases the cost of processing but ensures a perfect fit and long knife life.
Stonewash
Stonewash is a blade finishing technique that involves treating steel in a drum filled with stones, ceramic abrasives, or beads. The impact of the material creates a characteristic, irregular pattern with micro-scratches, giving the effect of a matte, slightly “aged” surface with a raw, practical appearance. The finish gives the knife an aesthetic look and masks minor scratches and marks that occur during use, keeping the blade looking like new for longer. The matte texture reduces light reflections, which is valued in tactical and outdoor knives, and the micro-scratches can further reduce friction during cutting. Due to its durability, discreet appearance, and ease of maintenance, stonewash is popular in EDC, field, and tactical knives.

A practical, wide blade. The handle lies comfortably in a large hand, but for a smaller hand, it may be slightly too wide to achieve a secure grip. Nevertheless, I recommend it, a successful design.
