The product of a years-long collaboration with the ceaselessly innovative design duo Chen Chen and Kai Williams. The Sidewinder is an enigmatic kinetic sculpture moonlighting as a knife, and it’s been designed specifically with connoisseurs of the tactile and subtly mechanical in mind. Named for the oscillating tracks left in the sand by its serpentine namesake, motion is at the core of the Sidewinder’s design philosophy. Rather than a fixed handle, it features an interlocking mechanical hilt, its two opposing elements moving in sympathy with the blade itself to produce a truly unique unsheathing mechanism. Formed entirely of Stone Wash finished and Black PVD-coated Stainless Steel, the Sidewinder boasts a heft that feels authoritative in the hand, but never unwieldy. It’s perfectly pocketable — making it a functional element of your Everyday Carry lineup — but it’s equally content to be displayed on a desk, a shelf, or a mantle. Show more
