QSP – QS130GLD2 – Penguin Glyde – Folding Knife – 14C28N Coated Sheepsfoot – FRN – Blue

Description

The QSP Penguin Glyde (Model QS130GLD2) is a meticulously engineered everyday carry (EDC) folding pocket knife that balances reliability, ergonomic design, and refined aesthetics. With precision-crafted components, lightweight materials, and versatile functionality, it’s poised to become a staple in your daily toolkit or collection. The blade is made of high-quality Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, hardened to approximately 59–61 HRC—a profile celebrated for strong edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. Shaped in a sheepsfoot profile, the blade delivers excellent control for slicing and chopping tasks, while the straight edge minimizes tip vulnerability. Opening and closing the blade is seamless, thanks to a pivot with ceramic ball bearings, paired with dual thumb studs for reliable one-handed operation. Once deployed, the Glyde Lock provides secure blade lockup with smooth action, ensuring safety and confidence during use. The handle is crafted from fiberglass reinforced nylon (FRN) in an ice-cream blue finish, lending a lightweight yet durable grip that remains comfortable across extended use. Its textured feel ensures firm handling in all conditions. Compact and pocket-friendly, the knife measures 4.00″ (102 mm) closed, 7.06″ (180 mm) overall, with a 3.06″ (78 mm) blade and approximately 3.0 mm blade thickness. Weighing in at around 83 g (2.93 oz), it stays discreet yet substantial in hand. For discreet carry, it comes equipped with a reversible, deep-carry stainless steel pocket clip—tip-up orientation—suiting both left- and right-handed users.
