NCC Ragnarok V1 Knife – 3.2” S45VN Harpoon Blade, Gun Metal Gray Titanium, Frame Lock – Made in USA (S/N 157)

One of one. Fully built by hand.

This NCC Ragnarok V1 is a custom piece from Nicholas Chuprin, picked up at Blade Show Texas 2026 and built start to finish in the USA.

From the materials to the finishes to the hardware selection, every detail on this knife was intentionally chosen and executed in-house at NCC.

This is not a production knife. This is a single, serialized build: S/N 157.

The Ragnarok Platform

The Ragnarok is one of NCC’s most recognizable designs.

It blends aggressive lines with a refined overall shape, giving it a strong visual presence while still maintaining excellent ergonomics in hand.

Everything feels deliberate, from the blade shape to the handle contouring.

Fully Spec’d Custom Build

This knife wasn’t pulled from a catalog.

Every component was selected and built as part of a complete vision:

• Gun Metal Gray titanium frame with a 3D grid contour pattern

• Milled harpoon blade in S45VN

• A full suite of Ti-Zirc and Ti-Zirc-Cu hardware, adding depth and contrast throughout

The combination creates a cohesive look that changes depending on lighting and angle.

Materials That Stand Out

NCC is known for pushing material combinations, and this build shows it clearly:

• Ti-Zirc hardware adds durability and a darker, more technical aesthetic

• Ti-Zirc-Cu accents introduce subtle contrast without overpowering the design

• The layered finishes give the knife a sense of depth that photos don’t fully capture

This is the kind of detail you notice more the longer you handle it.

Built by Hand in the USA

Every part of this knife was made and assembled by hand at NCC.

No outsourcing. No shortcuts. Just direct craftsmanship from one of the most respected custom makers in the space.

Why This One Stands Out

This is a true one-of-one.

Not just in the sense of being limited, but in how it was built. Every material choice, every finish, every component was selected as part of a single custom configuration.

There will be other Ragnaroks.

There won’t be another one exactly like this.
