Traditional Blade, Modern Interpretation!

When Shilin Cutter® meets the Vanchor Lock®, you will love it!

An engineering maverick of the Vosteed family, the Shilin Cutter® is fun, reliable, and different all in one package.

 

A Variety of Options:

154CM: G10 or Norplex UltreX™ G10 handle scales

Elmax: Aluminum handle scales

The Norplex UltreX™ G10 is known for its higher color saturation; while the normal G10 offers a more subtle color contrast.

 

Ultra-Functional Blade Shape

Shilin Cutter® is a time-honored Taiwanese knife style, the earliest record dates back to almost 200 years ago. Rooted in agricultural and farming practices, the wide blade on the Shilin Cutter® allows for efficient cutting and slicing through different materials such as wood, stems, leaves, carton boxes, paper, tubes, and cables.

 

Ergonomic Excellence

Different from our Nightshade®, the Shilin Cutter® employs a wider and more contoured handle that will offer extra grip and control, as well as a natural fit for big hands.

The blade cutting edge drops downward creating a negative blade angle, which allows the blade cutting edge to lower than the user's index finger so the wrist is in alignment. It is comfortable when you use the knife for a long period of time, it requires less pressure to be applied by your wrist. 

 

Patented Vanchor Lock®

Our 2-in-1 locking system combines a pivot and button, allowing for a safe and intuitive way to operate the knife.

The Vanchor lock® integrates a magnetic connector and a robust lock plate, working together to ensure both stability and reinforcement. Additionally, the lock's design guarantees that the pivot/button remains recessed, regardless of the lock's engagement, for seamless operation and a sleek appearance.

 

Triple the Fun Multiple Deployment Options

In addition to allowing users to open the knife with gloves on, the triple deployment systems offer tons of fidgeting fun for you. There will be no dull moment when you have the Shilin Cutter® in your hand.

Slicey beast!

This blade shape paired with Elmax steel makes for such amazing slicing performance. In hand it's light, deft, and has well-thought-out ergos... and it's fun and fidgety with all of the deployment methods. Just a great all around EDC and value for the money.

Fun Lock to Tried and True knife

Bought this knife because I like the fidgityness of the new V-anchor lock.
Putting this lock on a tried and true Nightshade is great.

Not sure why they changed the name, though.

Great EDC

Fantastic knife, smooth action. Love the multiple ways to deploy the blade. The color scheme is awesome. The vanchor lock is like butter and is drop shut all day.

Fantastic update to an excellent knife!

Great ergonomics. Updated Vanchor lock works flawlessly. Broader blade allows for thinner edge geometry. Fit and finish are amazing as usual.
