If you're in the market for a knife with ultra-clean design and symmetrical aesthetics, the Corgi V is your perfect match. Building on the beloved features of the original Corgi, this version adds standout elements like the robust Vanchor Lock, excellent balance, and an exciting wheeler mechanism — all at an impressive price point.
Minimalist Design
By using a CNC-milled bridge backspacer, two aluminum handle scales are seamlessly connected. This smartly engineered one-piece backspacer provides extra structural integrity as well as allows us to make the show side as clean as possible. As a result, all screws disappeared from view on the show side.
The Zero-screw design is a worthy engineering challenge, and we are thrilled to present it to you.
Fun Ways to Open
Fun factors are what make Corgi V unique, especially in its multiple opening mechanisms.
You can flick it open with the front flipper for a quick, intuitive experience. Or, try the exciting new wheeler mechanism, inspired by lighter rollers. Its deeply jimped surface offers excellent traction, letting you roll the blade open with ease. Every time you open the knife, an enjoyable experience comes with it!
"That’s how we roll!" has never been more fitting.
Robust Vanchor Lock
At its core, the Corgi V utilizes the patented Vanchor Lock.
Compared with the normal button lock mechanism, the Vanchor lock is the solid backbone of the Corgi V without a doubt. The magnetically recessed button ensures accidental openings are virtually impossible.
Its larger ball bearings and fail-safe system provide solid, confident action, combining practicality with a touch of fidget-friendly fun.
Perfectly Balanced for EDC
With a 2.36” 14C28N drop-point blade and contoured aluminum handles, it achieves an optimal blade-to-handle ratio. It strikes a great balance between sturdiness and lightweight.
Unlike typical Vanchor Lock knives with thicker handles, the Corgi V's handles were fine-tuned through countless prototypes to maintain structural stability while offering a sleek profile.
With the 180 rotation angle, the blade will magically disappear from the handle, making the knife non-threatening at all! Plus, the deep carry clip allows it to be discreetly concealed in your pocket.
