MDV D2 Body / D2 Blade
2 Years in the making 150,000.00+ invested we finally have a few overruns from the first special contract of these. This contract over run has no logo on them for Special Squirrely reasons. The ones available later in 2023 will have logos.
We had hoped to have a full shipment of the civilian versions of this available but welcome to 2022. We are happy to be able to release a handful of contract overruns.
This knife came from the minds of Michael Donvito and Jack Nevils, based on the Grays Custom/Michael Donvito designed MDV fixed blade.
We collaborated with Bram Frank on the Bramph friction opening feature and are honored to do so.
There are 2 versions of this knife. Titanium body D2 steel blade and D2 body and D2 Blade. Find the Steel version on a different weblink.
This is a specialty folding knife for the serious person. This is a folding knife that both Jack and Mike believe is worthy of being called a personal protection knife.

This folder is designed to work the same as the MDV Fixed blade and can do all it does as well as fold to be carried in the pocket. Check out the videos on our YouTube page.
MDV Folder Trainers also available in Titanium and Steel body in the Training tools category on the website.
More photos coming.
This might be the best designed folder every manufactured for personal protection.

I bought MDv folder (live and drone) when I saw the video of GM Bram Frank doing a review. I really like the design, shape of the blade, functionality and quality. It's a blade with an all around functionality in mind. The blade is razor sharp straight from the box. Irs design is brilliant for both cutting and poking. I love the hook on the butt end as it increases hold retention and protects your fingers from being injured when you use the window breaker. The handle fits well in the hand, whether us it in conventional or reverse hold, and you can still grip another object while holding it. I highly recommend it.

If you’re getting this awesome knife, do it justice and get the trainer. Couldn’t be happier

The fast deployability and perfect ergonomics of this well-conceived folder make it a great tool for self-defence. It’s a slim, sleeky slicer with smooth action on both opening mechanisms (flipper and wave feature), a reliable locking mechanism and versatile application options. It’s low weight and slim build enable unintrusive, concealed carrying in different positions, making the knife a perfect back-up weapon if things get dicey. The handle shape provides for a secure and comfortable forward grip in all main angles of attack and the blade shape is perfect for stabbing, slicing, and carving. Even closed, the folder functions very well as an effective impact weapon and can be used for all standard hammer and gunting techniques. While generally a useful feature, the glass breaker prevents a comfortable grip if the knife is held in reverse position (edge out). But since it is screwed, this problem can be resolved with a pair of pliers. Without the glass breaker the knife handles well in reverse position and feels comfortable, both with edge in and out. Numerous little details provide evidence of a thoughtful design, such as a small swell where the hook is connected to the end of the handle, which provides for a secure grip when the folder is quickly drawn out of a pants pocket. The flipper ensures that the knife stays closed until the wave feature catches the rim of the pocket. Great product!

Bought the fixed blade MDV+1 and fell in love. Bought the folder to make it easier to carry and all I can say is WOW. This has become my go to EDC pocket knife. Also picked up the folder trainer to make it feel more natural when deploying and using it. Amazing blade!!

Hands down the best fighting folder I’ve come across. From the big things to the little things, this knife checks the boxes and then some. The thought process that went into the design is second to none.

I love it. Cool design, good weight and shape. Has a smooth opening, though I recommend you practice with it slowly at first.
