The Model 3 Platform

The Model 3 is ABW's most refined manual folder. It runs a button liner lock with thumb stud deployment, so you press the button to disengage and open one handed. The 3.3 inch MagnaCut blade uses a smooth grind rather than stepped milling, which gives it cleaner geometry behind the edge for better slicing.

Frag-Milled G10

This version wears a fragmentation pattern milled into black G10 scales. The frag texture adds grip and a more aggressive look, and G10 carries warmer and grips more positively than aluminum. It is the reason to reach for this one over the standard handles.

MagnaCut Blade

The blade is CPM MagnaCut at 64 HRC, heat treated and cryogenically tempered. It holds an edge and resists rust, and the smooth grind makes it a clean slicer for everyday tasks. A stonewash finish hides normal wear.

Made in the USA

American Blade Works is Michael Martin's family-owned shop in Weaverville, North Carolina, and he machines nearly every component himself. It is backed by a one-year limited warranty. This is American mid-tech done right.

Why This One Stands Out

The Model 3 with a frag-milled G10 handle gives you the refined button liner lock platform with extra grip and a more tactical look, all in MagnaCut and made in North Carolina.
