"Carrying a three-inch blade shouldn't feel like a compromise, yet most compact EDC knives sacrifice either ergonomics or capability to hit that sweet spot. Vosteed's Kroc takes a different path. The design starts with a sheepsfoot blade that maximizes cutting edge while maintaining a sub-three-inch profile, then wraps it in a handle that somehow feels full-sized despite the knife's 7-inch overall length."
"The sheepsfoot blade design with that 2.99-inch cutting edge with the flat spine gives you a blade profile that excels at controlled cuts while eliminating the stabby tip that makes carrying folders feel legally questionable in certain jurisdictions. The 1.18-inch blade width means you're getting actual spine height here, which translates to structural rigidity when you're bearing down on tougher materials."
The Kroc pairs a 2.99-inch sheepsfoot blade with a handle that feels full-sized despite a 7-inch overall length. The sheepsfoot profile maximizes cutting edge while eliminating a piercing tip, improving legal carry and controlled cutting tasks. Blade geometry is flat-ground for aggressive edge performance and the 1.18-inch spine height adds rigidity for tougher materials. The model line spans nine configurations that preserve a consistent silhouette, thumbhole, dual choils, and ceramic bearing deployment. Options range from $69 G10 to $129 aluminum with S35VN steel, offering material and budget flexibility without sacrificing design coherence.
