About 3DTi-Knives
A lot of time and passion went into all aspects of our 3DTi knives. Because only when all components perform at the highest level can we truly speak of the world's first no-compromise knives.
Our 3DTi-Handles
Our 3D-printed titanium handles were developed by us with clear goals: To achieve the best balance of weight and stability with the highest functionality and perfect ergonomics for our knives. In many iterations, the moulds were repeatedly adjusted over a year and subjected to strict stress tests of the knives (and our nerves) until we were satisfied with the result. With an average wall thickness of 1 mm, the high-strength titanium of the handle is still incredibly stable and allows for a blade with an unusually short tang that has no disadvantages: the titanium supports the tang and force is dissipated into the handle evenly. In addition to the extreme weight saving, another advantage is a large hollow space inside (except TiNy-models) which, in combination with our titanium screw cap, provides a storage space for various applications. In addition to our ruby sharpening rod, each individually important item can be stored absolutely dry in the handle.
Our Blades
We source our blades from a renowned Solingen contract grinder, with whom we also work together on the optimal ergonomics of our blades and select suitable steels. We have our blades hardened at at the specital German hardening shop Werz. Here we have full control over the final result. We fit the blades into the handle without play and glue them into the titanium handle over the entire surface with high-strength adhesive. For even more safety, with most models the blade is additionally screwed from the inside. So it remains fully functional in the unlikely event of the adhesive coming off. The adhesive reliably seals the gap to the handle and prevents dirt and moisture from penetrating. It is possible to have worn or damaged blades replaced by us at a reasonable price. We only use high quality steeks like CMP MagnaCut or Niolox
Our Sheaths
Knife sheaths have always been one of our biggest bottlenecks. Knife sheaths typically are made of leather or Kydex and are produced by hand. Due to our large number of blade-handle combinations, we were unable to have sufficient quantities produced economically. The problem: injection moulded sheaths were far from meeting our requirements. That's why we developed 3D printable sheaths especially for our knives. They are made of PA11 (polyamide) and have, varying by model, for example a removable belt loop, drain holes, an adjusting screw for the perfect fit of the knife and other features. They are available for right- & left-handers. In the future we will offer 3D-printed sheaths and leather sheaths.

TiNy "Floe" with Droppoint blade in 14C28N steel (without sheath)
The idea behind the knifeOur TiNy series in Floe design was developed with the goal of offering our no-compromise 3DTi design in even more compact and lightweight form. The TiNy with droppoint blade is, despite the extremely low weight of only 80 grams, as stable as a full-tang of the same length. This makes the TiNy theperfect unobtrusive companion for everyday use(EDC) or a no-compromise backup knife with impressive stability.CAUTION: This knife is offered here without a sheath.Features & SpecificationsFeaturesStable as a full-tang at only 80 grams weight.

The knife in detail
The handleThe ultralight and stable 3DTi handle made of titanium with the texturing in Floe pattern enables a safe handling even in sweat, wet and cold due to the uniform roughness. Together with the pronounced finger protection, this ensures maximum safety. Weighing only 38 grams, the handle allows long work without fatigue. In winter, the low mass with the poor thermal conductivity of titanium ensures that the handle is at body temperature in just a few seconds, even in wet and cold conditions, making it suitable for use in all climates. We recommend this grip for glove sizes S-XL.The bladeThe Tiny with 100 mm droppoint blade made of 14C28Nsteel was designed by us as a universal work knife with 2.8 mm blade thickness . The droppoint shape, with its balanced geometry, enables excellent cutting performance with the highest load capacity of the cutting bevel. The stonewashed surface makes the blade insensitive to scratches and is lowly reflective. The Ricasso provides long-term resharpenability.
