The Artisan Cutlery Beest ATZ1878P-BVT brings aggressive styling and smooth performance together in a refined everyday carry platform. Designed by Dusty Rhodes, this manual folder balances strong geometry with modern materials for a knife that looks sharp and performs even sharper.

The 3.65-inch drop point blade is crafted from AR-RPM9 stainless steel and finished in a durable black PVD coating. With a hardness rating of 59–61 HRC, it delivers dependable edge retention and corrosion resistance while maintaining easy maintenance for daily use.

The milled purple aluminum handles give the Beest its unmistakable personality. Lightweight yet strong, the handle features detailed machining for improved grip and visual depth. Inside, ceramic ball bearings provide fluid deployment whether using the front flipper, thumb hole, or thumb stud. A secure liner lock ensures solid lockup during use, and the deep-carry pocket clip keeps the profile discreet in-pocket.

This is a knife that blends performance, style, and versatility into one confident EDC piece.
