Description

The QSP Penguin Glyde, model QS130GLA1, is a refined everyday carry (EDC) folding knife designed for reliable performance in a compact form. It features Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, renowned for offering excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and controlled sharpness—optimized for everyday cutting tasks and general utility. Built around QSP’s innovative Glyde lock mechanism complemented by ceramic ball bearings, the blade opens smoothly and locks securely, balancing effortless deployment with stability. The blade presents a sheepsfoot profile with a flat grind and plain edge, finished in a satin/stonewash style. This design offers maximum control for precision slicing and everyday cutting tasks. The handle is crafted from fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) in a sleek black finish. It is lightweight yet durable, and pairs with a reversible deep-carry stainless steel pocket clip, ensuring comfortable, ambidextrous tip-up carry. Despite its rugged functionality, the Penguin Glyde remains remarkably lightweight—measuring 7.06″ in open length (180 mm) and just 2.93 oz (83 g), making it easy to carry without sacrificing substance.
