Description

The Krake Raken V3 (formerly known as the Kraken), is the industry leading butterfly knife that sets the gold standard for competitive flipping. The Krake Raken has several blade options including the Tanto, Bowie, Weehawk, and Trainer.

The Krake Raken balisong butterfly knife, originally introduced in 2019, is the first live-blade offering from Squid Industries. It features 7075 aluminum alloy channel handles and an AEB-L stainless steel blade. The Krake Raken is engineered for optimal ergonomics and grip with a machined texture, tapered handles, and a chamfered spine.

The Weehawk blade, inspired by the legendary Benchmade 42, aims to offer a familiar yet unique flipping experience in the Krake Raken lineup. While the single-edged spearpoint style might give an impression of a strong handle bias, its wider and longer profile creates a balance point that falls in between the Bowie and Tanto. For all new and returning Krake Raken enthusiasts, we guarantee that the Weehawk’s performance will blow your mind.

For those who are looking to EDC (every day carry) their Krake Raken, check out the Anchor. This innovative, light-weight device functions as both a detachable latch and pocket clip so that your knife stays together and secured while in your pocket.

These First Production units will be serialized out of 500.
