If you're in the market for a knife with ultra-clean design and symmetrical aesthetics, the Corgi V is your perfect match. Building on the beloved features of the original Corgi, this version adds standout elements like the robust Vanchor Lock, excellent balance, and an exciting wheeler mechanism — all at an impressive price point.
Minimalist Design
By using a CNC-milled bridge backspacer, two aluminum handle scales are seamlessly connected. This smartly engineered one-piece backspacer provides extra structural integrity as well as allows us to make the show side as clean as possible. As a result, all screws disappeared from view on the show side.
The Zero-screw design is a worthy engineering challenge, and we are thrilled to present it to you.
Fun Ways to Open
Fun factors are what make Corgi V unique, especially in its multiple opening mechanisms.
You can flick it open with the front flipper for a quick, intuitive experience. Or, try the exciting new wheeler mechanism, inspired by lighter rollers. Its deeply jimped surface offers excellent traction, letting you roll the blade open with ease. Every time you open the knife, an enjoyable experience comes with it!
"That’s how we roll!" has never been more fitting.
Robust Vanchor Lock
At its core, the Corgi V utilizes the patented Vanchor Lock.
Compared with the normal button lock mechanism, the Vanchor lock is the solid backbone of the Corgi V without a doubt. The magnetically recessed button ensures accidental openings are virtually impossible.
Its larger ball bearings and fail-safe system provide solid, confident action, combining practicality with a touch of fidget-friendly fun.
Perfectly Balanced for EDC
With a 2.36” 14C28N drop-point blade and contoured aluminum handles, it achieves an optimal blade-to-handle ratio. It strikes a great balance between sturdiness and lightweight.
Unlike typical Vanchor Lock knives with thicker handles, the Corgi V's handles were fine-tuned through countless prototypes to maintain structural stability while offering a sleek profile.
With the 180 rotation angle, the blade will magically disappear from the handle, making the knife non-threatening at all! Plus, the deep carry clip allows it to be discreetly concealed in your pocket.
Customer Reviews
I love the Corgis and Corgi Pups. The V is a little different and it may be a personal preference. I’m not a fan of the wheeler mechanism and prefer the original corgi ears. It’s a beautifully made knife, and the DESIGN looks fantastic. Mine came in TIGHT and I had to adjust it to be able to open. The “wheel” is still the most difficult way to open due to the tension of the lock but works great as push button flipper. The clip is smaller (almost half the length) than the corgi pups and corgi, so I easily swapped it with a full size corgi that I don’t carry very often.
I do wish the corgi pup had aluminum or titanium scales or even wood.
The CORGI V is a beautifully designed knife. I prefer the original.
Originally owned the Corgi pup and I love that knife until this came out. The Corgi V with the seamless front and the vanchor lock is a game changer
My new pocket, fidget and show my friend’s knife. I like everything about it and look forward to my next Vosteed.
I wasn't planning on buying a Corgi V. But a friend at work bought one and showed it to me.
The jimping along the radius is genius.
Videos just don't do this justice. It's so simple and is easily the preferred way to open the knife. There is no getting use to it. Once you realize you can just rub your finger over the jimping and the blade shoots open there is no need to try the front flipper...lol
It's an amazing design that I hope they use in more of their knives moving forward
This knife is my first small knife with the vanchor lock and it met all my expectations! It feels so premium and the price tag isn’t crazy like benchmade or spyderco!! The ankylo will be my next one I’m saving for!! Vosteed definitely wins with the corgi v. You guys definitely found the best balance between quality and price!!
