Since Sven Kinast from Messerdepot released his successful SK09 model, the hype surrounding this practical and well-designed EDC fixed blade knife hasn't subsided – and rightly so. The SK09 combines functionality with aesthetics, and the price is also right – what more could you want?! Actually, nothing, one might think, if it weren't for the exclusive special editions of the SK09 , such as the titanium variants anodized by Sven himself for our Messerteam shop.

This idea prompted us, in collaboration with our partner, to release our own solid wood handle scales . 100% craftsmanship, 100% Made in Northern Germany. The following wood types are available for the SK09 in the first production run: Wenge, Sipo, Teak, Oak, and smoked Oak. You can buy the wood handle scales separately and assemble them yourself, or purchase them as a ready-assembled package with the knife and leather sheath.
