Kizer Cutlery Vanguard C01C Sheepdog Clutch Lock, Purple
The Kizer Sheepdog C01C is a modern classic designed by Chris Conaway (Sheepdog Knives), blending rugged utility with everyday carry practicality. This version features Kizer’s new Clutch Lock mechanism — a crossbar-style lock that delivers smooth, ambidextrous operation with secure lockup.
Its broad sheepsfoot blade is crafted from 154CM stainless steel, a proven alloy known for its excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Finished with a stonewash for durability, the blade excels at slicing and utility tasks.
The handle is built from purple anodized aluminum, offering a lightweight yet durable frame with striking visual appeal. Combined with the deep-carry pocket clip, the Sheepdog remains pocket-friendly despite its bold profile.
