Handle and Ergonomics
The Feweed’s handle is a mix of blasted titanium and Purple Haze Fat Carbon, and it pulls double duty as both visual centerpiece and functional element. The carbon inlay isn't just for show—it reinforces the lock bar as an overtravel stop. The titanium itself has a fine texture that offers decent grip without being rough or overly slippery, even in dry hands.
At 4.11 inches closed, the handle fills the hand better than you might expect from something under 3 ounces. The curves land right where they should, and I never felt cramped or forced into an awkward grip. The jimping, especially over the top of the front flipper tab, adds a bit of traction and confidence without biting into the thumb. Everything is chamfered, smoothed out, and well-executed—no hotspots during use, and nothing that felt like an afterthought.
Even with a bold design like this, it’s clear ergonomics were not sacrificed.
Pocket Clip and Locking Mechanism
The 3D milled titanium pocket clip is non-reversible, which might turn off left-handed users, but for right-hand carry, it’s excellent. It strikes that nice balance between snug retention and pocket-friendliness. I had no trouble clipping it to jeans, basketball shorts, or pocket on my work slacks, and it stays put without tearing fabric or flaring out.
The frame lock is solid with good engagement. No lock stick, and disengaging it is easy thanks to a generous cutout on the lock side. I also appreciate the clean, open-backed design—it keeps the weight down (just 3.22 oz) and makes the whole knife easy to maintain.
The detent deserves some praise too. It’s tuned well for both the thumb stud and the front flipper. You can’t really slow-roll this thing—it prefers to be snapped open with authority. But when you do, it rewards you with a very crisp, mechanical “thwack” that’s oddly satisfying.
Blade and Cutting Performance
You’re looking at a 2.98-inch clip point blade made from CPM-S35VN, finished with a clean black stonewash. That harpoon-style clip swedge gives it a little attitude and a lot of tip control. It’s a full flat grind, so right out of the box it’s a capable slicer.
Over the past couple of weeks, I ran the Feweed through my usual EDC tasks—opening boxes, breaking down cardboard, trimming paracord, and prepping lunch. It passed every test with ease. The S35VN edge held up through multiple days of light-to-moderate use without needing a touch-up.
I especially liked how it handled plastic clamshell packaging—thin enough behind the edge to glide through, but still sturdy at the tip. The blade shape also gives you decent precision when working around tight corners or doing detailed pull cuts. That harpoon notch is great for indexing your thumb, too—it adds control during push cuts.
Is it a hard-use blade? Not really. But for 95% of everyday tasks, this thing handles its business like a pro.
Closing Thoughts
The Kizer Feweed isn’t trying to be discreet, and that’s part of its charm. It’s bold, futuristic, and undeniably fun to use. But what surprised me most is how well it performs as a tool. The design feels intentional, not gimmicky. The action is dialed in, the ergos are comfortable, and the materials are top-shelf.
Sure, I wouldn’t mind a reversible clip or a slightly more neutral thumb stud shape, but those are nitpicks. What you get for around $150–$180 is a knife that looks custom, feels premium, and cuts like a champ. It’s become one of my favorite recent Kizer releases—not just because it looks cool, but because it holds up under real use.
If you're into knives that blend function with a little futuristic flair, the Feweed is well worth a spot in your rotation.
