A pocket knife for everyday carry
The Shirogorov 110 is a production folder from the Shirogorov Brothers Workshop with a devilishly seductive design.
If by function the 110 is a first-rate tactical knife, by appearance it's every bit a gentleman. The refined, streamlined form, soft-touch carbon fiber on the handle, the bold, aggressive fuller — such a beauty almost seems too good to take on camping trips or subject to anything heavier than opening envelopes and sharpening pencils. But that would be a mistake! The folder is built from extremely durable materials, and Shirogorov's mechanics are among the best in the world.
The slender, dynamic drop-point blade is forged from M390 — a premium Swedish steel with exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. But the main virtue of M390 is its outstanding edge retention. The finish is a neat matte stonewash.
The 110's pivot runs on washers — an unusual choice for a workshop that typically prefers bearings. The result is a soft, velvety blade action. Hook your thumb into the deep fuller, make a semicircular motion — and the knife opens with ease. In the open position, the blade is held securely by a reliable Axis lock system.
The ergonomic handle sits comfortably in the palm. The warm texture of the carbon fiber is not only pleasant to the touch but also prevents slipping. The pocket clip, like the liner, is crafted from titanium — it holds the knife securely on the pocket and doesn't dig into your hand during use.
The 110 folder is a skilled EDC and an elegant tactical knife. It will look equally sharp with a business suit or in the pocket of outdoor jeans.
Tempted by the 110? How about its sibling — the Shirogorov 111?
