ABW Model 1 Knife – 3.25” MagnaCut Blade, Black Anodized Aluminum Handle, Liner Lock – Made in USA

A modern American folder done right.

The ABW Model 1 V7 is where precision machining meets everyday usability. Built entirely in the USA, this knife brings together premium materials, thoughtful design, and a refined action that feels dialed in from the first flip.

What Makes the V7 Different

The V7 update brings a more versatile deployment with both a flipper tab and thumb stud, giving you multiple ways to open the knife depending on how you carry and use it.

The action is smooth, controlled, and satisfying without feeling overly tuned or fragile.

Black Aluminum, Done Right

This isn’t your standard black handle.

The anodized aluminum has a premium, high-gloss depth to it, paired with a peened texture that adds grip and breaks up the surface just enough to feel secure in hand.

It gives you the best of both worlds:

• Clean, refined appearance

• Functional texture for real use

Built Around MagnaCut

The blade is made from MagnaCut stainless steel, heat treated and cryogenically tempered for excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness.

The 3D milling and light stonewash finish give the blade a subtle visual depth while keeping it practical for everyday use.

Fully American Made

Every component of this knife is made right here in the USA.

From the blade steel to the hardware to the final assembly, this is a true example of American manufacturing done at a high level.

Why This One Stands Out

The Model 1 hits a sweet spot.

It’s refined without being delicate, premium without being flashy, and built with materials that actually matter.

If you’re looking for a knife that represents what modern American manufacturing can do, this is it.

A Quick Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply

We don’t always get to choose products made in the USA. Most things simply don’t have an American-made option.

But the cool thing about pocket knives is that we do.

If you want to keep products made here, and even grow what’s made here, it starts with supporting companies like ABW today.
