WE Knife has a reputation for creating visually striking knives and continues to be a leader in the functional art category. The company’s knives are often found in the collections of EDC knife collectors and users alike. The WE Knife Beacon, for example, demonstrates EDC characteristics with features designed to be beautiful or used daily. This latest offering is possibly the company’s most functional and cleanest model. RELATED STORY VOIDEO: The Magpul Rigger EDC Flipper Review The WE Knife Beacon EDC Flipper. Available in three colors, black, grey, and blue, the 6AL4V Titan handle/frame is lightweight but durable. The handle’s.42-inch thickness means that it leaves little space in the pocket. The 6AL4V titanium deep-carry pocket clip keeps your Beacon out sight. The pocket is not too heavy due to its 3.63-ounce weight. It can be used right-hand tip up, but it can also be used left-hand tip up. Tip-down carrying is not possible. The CPM 20CV stainless-steel blade measures 3.48 inches in length and has a flat grind that meets up to a tapering fuller. The blade’s elegant appearance is enhanced by the chamfered spine, which adds a slight swedge to ensure that it is easy to use. The chamfering continues back and is complemented by subtle jimping to provide a better grip. The drop point blade glides on a caged ceramic ball bearing pivot and is extended to 7.91 inches by a flipper. The blade is available in three different finishes, just like the handle options. Standard models are available in black stonewash and silver bead blast. The Beacon with Damasteel blade (Hakkapella), can be purchased for an additional fee. The WE Knife beacon is now available with a MSRP of $235.00 (Standard), or $670.00(Damascus). Visit WEKnife.com for more information. WE Knife Beacon EDC flipper Blade Material: CPM20CV
