Overview

ALL GRADE-A UNITS ARE SOLD OUT — We only have a few of the discounted grade-b units available, they're still stunning works of art and won't last long with slight blemishes that make them grade-B. You can see what's left and purchase here: Click Here

This is a LIMITED sale of ONLY 60 TiMascus TiRant RAZOR V3's. Each of these 60 units are 100% unique and will vary widely in pattern while maintaining an overall blue hue.

Both RH and LH handle of the V3 is anodized by hand revealing the individually unique through-body multi-layered masterpiece of color and semi-random circular beauty! NOTE: Some lighter sections may remain slightly around locking grooves — please watch our video here to see some of the possible variations: Click Here

None are alike and all are crafted with CNC precision from TiMascus—a stunning titanium Damascus material renowned for its strength and beauty. The scales feature multi-layered, forged hues of deep blues, creating a mesmerizing pattern that shimmers like ripples on an ethereal lake when in contact with light.

Comes PRE-BUILT with all black hardware and our ALL-NEW PRO-SERIES REVERSIBLE CNC'D 6AL-4V Titanium deep-carry clip. This premium clip is milled from a solid block of titanium.

Due to the handmade polished aspect of these handles, some variation is expected and normal. We never know exactly how the timascus will look until the final anodization process, so this is although we do our best to match RH/LH sides, there will be some difference and this is as expected due to the handmade nature of these rare and exotic utility knife knives.

These are all RARE and our last drop was nearly 2 years ago, so we don't plan on doing another drop for awhile!

Once they're gone, they're gone! — Grab one of these Custom V3's and you'll have the bragging rights to one of the craziest utility knives ever made by anyone to date!

We also dropped a few discounted grade B units if desired, you can see what's available and purchase here: Click Here (The Grade-B units may have patterns that we deem less favorable due to pattern, polish, glazing, small anodizing issues or small scratches. Overall they all are still stunning pieces of art!

Reviews of the TiRant® RAZOR V3 line (496)

I am a packaging designer and work with corrugated cardboard all day every day. A utility blade is a must have for me at work...and I also prefer to carry one as an EDC tool. The TiRant fits the bill for both worlds. As a work utility knife, any utility blade will do. But the TiRant is a cool, lightweight flipper that feels good and strong in the hand when working, and is light and stylish in the pocket like you want your EDC tools to be. I ordered the black version and purchased black ceramic blades on Amazon. I couldn't be happier and I get tons of compliments from my coworkers and knife aficionado friends.

This is my second knife. Lost my first at work somewhere and I’m still gutted. Still, having bought two, it was cheaper than what I’ve paid for more “premium” flip knives in the past. It’s small and lightweight but fits perfectly in the hand upon extension and has the absolute smoothest flip I’ve ever felt. And unlike those expensive EDC knives I’ve carried before, I’m never hesitant. No worries about dulling, sharpening, or even chipping a blade. Just swap in a new razor. I work building maintenance with a lot of the gruff gents who balk at the idea of investing money for a “simple” utility knife. “Why would you pay that much?! Just go down to harbor freight!” Then I put it in their hands. Every one of them had to reassess their understanding and I had to share the site with at least one guy. Now this knife has attitude and not necessarily in the best way. When I received my second knife, I also got the pry bar. Switching it out was a breeze on my first knife but this little bugger…immediately stripped the included wrench. Ok, I’ll use MY tools. Stripped the screws. Both sides. It was about this time that I told the knife “this was not a request” and pulled out my dremel, drill press attachment, and a small bit. 20 minutes of slow drilling later I was laughing maniacally at my victory. I’m still giving this 5 stars even though I’d have been SOL without my own tools (also might be a fluke but this knife is a lot harder to switch blades on, almost like the catch is bent in a bit too far) Seriously, I love this knife. And to Exceed Designs I’ll say I understand wanting to make a bulletproof product but damn guys, at least ensure serviceability.

I’m a knife and multitool nerd. I use utility knives on a daily basis for work and figured I should invest a little extra and treat myself to something nice. Welp it’s very nice haha. I mean it’s absolutely outstanding. The action, weight, build quality, included spare parts, warranty are all pretty much as good as you can really get. And it’s made in the US? Yup excellent value.. I bought the base model Razor V3

Outstanding
★★★★★Mar 2024

A high quality utility knife with a very strong lock up and no side to side play in both directions. The ergonomics of the grip is surprisingly good with such a rectangular shape. The size and weight lend itself very well for EDC carry. Areas for improvement include: possible jimping on the fipper and less force needed on the blade change, which I do with one quick easy motion. This could be the best utility knife on the market and I highly recommend it!!!

Best knife out there. I lost the first one that i abused HEAVILY. Im talking knife open to get more leverage on the prying end and it doesnt care. Get one you will not regret it.

So nice I bought twice
