Psyop - Top Liner Lock Knife (2.99" S35VN Blade & Glow-in-the-Dark Micarta Handle) - A2238

What if you could have the best of both worlds? Sitting right between the big and small Psyop, the new Psyop 299 hits the sweet spot at 2.99". Designed in close collaboration with Geoff Blauvelt of Tuff Knives, every detail was refined together — from the clean, modern lines to the retro vibe, right down to the asymmetrical bolster and micarta handle. More Edge, Same Comfortable Feel At 2.99", the US-made Crucible S35VN blade delivers excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. On this compact Psyop, we refined the blade-to-handle ratio by minimizing the blade choil, giving it a longer, more uninterrupted cutting edge for better slicing performance. Some users prefer a larger choil for a more forward grip and added control. That's why this version doesn't replace the big Psyop — it simply offers another option for those who want maximum edge length in a more compact format. Built for the Hand, Open to Customization Purposefully designed to merge vintage character with modern minimalism, the handle features GID Micarta scales paired with the Psyop's signature asymmetrical bolster. By day, the Micarta keeps the warm, textured feel you'd expect in hand. In the dark, its glow-in-the-dark effect adds a surprising layer of character — subtle, functional, and unmistakably different. It's a fresh take on the Psyop 299: the same stout, confident design, now with a handle material that brings a little more personality to the carry.   Engineered for Perfect Feel We know you love the Top Liner Lock, so our engineering team went deep to fine-tune the bar's length, width, height, and travel. The result? A lock that's dialed in just right for this size—secure, intuitive, and satisfying every time you flip it open. The thumb stud keeps deployment quick and familiar. Grip & Utility To improve grip and control during opening and use, we added jimping to the front of the handle and the spine of the blade—a subtle but meaningful upgrade for secure handling. Details Matter • Full T8 hardware throughout—including the thumb stud—for easy maintenance and added durability. • Titanium-coated screws on the handle enhance durability and add a premium, refined finish. • Reversible deep-carry wire clip offers discreet pocket carry for both left- and right-handed users. • A recessed button sits flush with the handle, delivering a clean profile and intuitive operation. • A slightly enlarged lanyard hole for easier threading and improved functionality—a small tweak with big impact. More Than a New Knife — It's Another Choice The Psyop 299 isn't here to replace anything — it's here to expand the vision. For those who wanted more cutting edge, a more compact carry, and a fresh layer of visual character, this is the answer. Still Psyop at its core, but with a more distinctive finish for those who like their everyday carry with a little more personality.
