If you’re not yet familiar with Quiet Carry, they make everything from keychain knives to EDC knives. And when it comes to an EDC knife, there are three things we find most important: durability, portability and ease of use. Does it have a strong edge? Will it hold that edge? Is it easy to carry and even easier to deploy when needed? This Quiet Carry iQ flipper knife checks all of those boxes and then some. Inspired by the traditional Japanese Higo Knife, the iQ flipper has elegant lines, no-nonsense construction and a mechanism that’s not only effective, but pleasing to deploy. The handle is built with grade 5 titanium with a carbon fiber inlay, deep-carry pocket clip and a PVD coating. The blade itself is heat-treated VG10 stainless with superior edge retention, rust resistance and impressive durability. The Quiet Carry iQ Flipper Knife has already crushed its Kickstarter funding goal, and the campaign ends in about a month. Knives have an estimated delivery date of May 2018.
