JL-160 Skeleton Tanto Folding Knife — Precision Meets Industrial Design
Press the button. The blade answers.
There is something deeply satisfying about a rear-button release mechanism.
Your thumb finds the button naturally — a solid, machined trigger positioned at the rear of the handle.
Press it, and the blade responds with controlled mechanical precision.
No spring.
No assist.
Just a direct connection between your hand and the steel.
Industrial Skeleton Design
The geometric skeletonized handle is more than a visual statement — it is functional engineering.
Precision cutouts pass through the stainless steel frame like a technical blueprint, reducing unnecessary weight while revealing the mechanical character beneath.
At 175 grams, the knife delivers a balanced combination of solid presence and comfortable carry.
Light moves through the frame as it turns in your hand, creating a unique industrial aesthetic.
This is design built to be carried, not simply displayed.
Tanto Blade Precision
The 8.5 cm Tanto blade is designed for controlled cutting performance with a reinforced tip structure.
Hardened to 59 HRC, the blade provides reliable performance for everyday tasks:
- Opening boxes and packaging
- Cutting cord and rope
- General everyday carry tasks
The straight cutting edge supports clean slicing, while the strengthened Tanto tip provides additional control and durability.
Built for Mechanical Satisfaction
At only 21 cm when folded, the JL-160 maintains a compact profile for everyday carry.
It stays quiet in your pocket until the moment you need it.
Then one press brings the mechanical experience back to life.
This is more than a tool.
It is an interaction between engineering and the user.
JL-160 — Precision Meets Utility
Designed for those who appreciate mechanical structure, industrial aesthetics, and tactile control.
For collectors fascinated by functional design.
For EDC users who value precision and personality.
For anyone drawn to bold mechanical style.
