Description

The Marfione Custom Whale Shark Mirror Polish 30k Carbon Fiber is an ultra-premium, highly collectible manual flipper knife hand-crafted by Anthony Marfione, the founder of Microtech Knives, based on a design collaboration with Johnny Liao. Known for its exceptional art-knife aesthetics and flawless mechanical execution, this specific custom variant shifts away from standard production materials to deliver a high-end showcase of modern knifemaking craftsmanship.Key Design & Build FeaturesHand-Ground Mirror Polish Blade: The defining feature of this custom piece is its stunning, flawless mirror-polished blade. Hand-ground individually by Tony Marfione, the blade typically uses premium steels like 154CM or Elmax, featuring an open-ended fuller groove surrounding oversized thumb studs.30,000 Layer Carbon Fiber Handle: The handle scales are sculpted from premium 30k layered carbon fiber. This material provides a highly distinct, deep 3D visual pattern while remaining incredibly lightweight, strong, and highly ergonomic.Titanium Sub-Lock System: Instead of a traditional liner lock, it utilises Microtech’s innovative titanium sub-lock tab mechanism. This system integrates directly with the pocket clip framework, featuring a replaceable face on the lock bar to ensure a rock-solid lockup and extended longevity.Ceramic Bearing Pivot: The manual deployment relies on a high-performance ceramic bearing system at the pivot point. This ensures a slick, lightning-fast, and effortless flipping action via the built-in spine flipper tab.Titanium Hardware Accents: The custom build is tied together with contoured titanium backstraps, titanium stop plates to protect the frame, and premium hardware available in either bead-blasted, satin, or bronzed anodized finishes.Technical SpecificationsBlade Length: 3.50 to 3.60 inchesOverall Length: 8.00 to 8.60 inchesBlade Thickness: 0.15 inchesWeight: Approximately 4.50 to 5.40 ouncesPocket Clip: Tip-up carry machined titanium
