Knafs O.C.T. Pocket Knife
The O.C.T. (Old College Try) from Knafs is a compact button-lock folder and the company's first knife of its kind—built for EDC users, fidget enthusiasts, and anyone who wants a small knife that feels bigger than it looks. This folder features a 1.89-inch 14C28N Wharncliffe blade with a flat grind and black stonewash finish, hardened to 59-60 HRC for solid edge retention and corrosion resistance. At 5.09 inches overall, 3.33 inches closed, and 1.95 ounces, the O.C.T. stays light and pocket-friendly all day.
The 6063 anodized aluminum handle gives the knife a lightweight, premium feel, with grind lines and handle contours that flow into a natural grip. Caged ceramic ball bearings support smooth action, and the snappy button lock is dialed in with help from Bestech, a maker known for button-lock refinement. A thumb stud handles one-handed opening, while the reversible deep carry stainless clip accommodates left- or right-side carry. The button texture takes its cue from the Old Main building at Utah State, and the integrated lanyard hole is ready for a bead add-on. Designed in-house by Matt Fitzgerald, the O.C.T. is a small, fun knife with a big story behind it.
