Yet another of the modern Chinese knife makers, Kansept takes its namesake from the word “concept,” a verbalization of the commitment the brand has to ongoing innovation, improvement, and staying at the forefront of the industry. In keeping with this, Kansept Knives are made using high-quality blade steels and materials, such as 154CM, S35VN, and Damascus steels, along with attractive, modern carbon fiber and Micarta scales. Their catalog also sports an interesting balance between unique designs and classic, timeless profiles, all of which hit the market at surprisingly appealing price points. If you’re looking for a quality knife at a surprisingly affordable price point, Kansept is a name not to overlook.
