The Inkosi is a new family of folding knives that will claim the position of Chief alongside the iconic Sebenza. The Inkosi features sandblasted handles, a tumbled finish drop point blade, titanium hardware and exterior accents in the Reev signature anodized blue. Built with handcrafter care at a production level, the Inkosi continues to push the characteristics of the Integral Lock, blade strength, pivot and lock tolerances as well as over all ergonomics.

 While challenging the standards of the Integral Lock®, the Inkosi is the most over built knife of its kind, a true testament of strength. Using a ceramic ball as an interface for the lock bar to the blade tang, it ensures a lifetime of consistent lock up. This is the first time we have been able to use twin, over sized washers with an Integral lock. The washer diameter is wider than the blade securing zero sideways play. With larger lubrication holes there is even less surface area of friction. With our Large Hollow Grind technology, we use a shallow radius to add more strength to the blade, making it half way between a flat grind and our standard hollow grind.
