The Story:
The idea sparked when I was using my KeyBar at work. I’ve always had my favorite knife, a Ferrum Forge Stinger, in one pocket and the KeyBar in the other. But one day I forgot my knife and I was trying to cut a zip tie with a key (we’ve all been there). I went that afternoon to see Elliot at FFKW and tell him about my idea to add a real knife to my KeyBar. -Andy (Nalpak, Inc.)

FAQ:

Will the KB Flipper work in any KeyBar? Yes, it will fit and work in any KeyBar with any keys or accessories.

Can you use the KB Flipper by itself? Yes, it is a stand-alone locking knife.

Will you be making any other blade shapes. Drop Point Version Q2-2022.

Can I take the KB Flipper apart? We suggest you don't do that as the bearings are loose and will fall out.

    KB-Flipper

    Published by Juan Carlos Navarro on Jan 17th 2024

    Exactly what I was looking for. Wanted to add a blade to my keybar but I want something that would not be “exposed” internally. Then I happened on this KB-Flipper. Self contained, nothing else interferes with the blade or its action. I only wish the frame lock would have a slight protrusion to assist in closing the blade easier. Other than that, very well made and excellent for my needs. Thanks San Diego Knives!

    Key Bar Flipper

    Great insert for Key Bar. Smooth action due to it being one unit. Liner lock is solid. It gives the Key Bar a bit of girth but that allows for a nice grip on a short handle.

    Great, but not the Original.

    Published by Adam K on Oct 11th 2021

    Was ecstatic to hear The KB Flipper was coming back, yet alone in tanto blade style! With that I ordered one as soon as it became available. As an owner of the original I compared the two. There are differences. For one the heft, the original has more weight. For two blade steel, original has S35VN new one has 9Cr18MoV which I have never heard of. For three, thickness original blade was almost twice as thick as the latest version. For four handle finish and hardware differ. Overall, I do think the latest version is a great well-crafted knife. Time will tell of course on how it holds up. Although given the opportunity I would have preferred an exact clone of the original with the new blade style. Just my opinion, the original was better built by my first impressions of the latest version.

    Smooth as butter! Great build quality and great value for the price. Handy tool to have in the 5th pocket. Super lightweight so you forget it’s there. Only problem is deciding which keybar to put it in.
