MachineWise Sonora - Brass Bolster - Sunray Plum Titanium - Lightwash S90V Blade #1717

S90V Button Lock with Titanium Handles

The Sonora is a premium EDC knife designed for enthusiasts who appreciate mechanical precision and high-performance materials. MachineWise, known for their balisong expertise, brings that same attention to detail and fidget-friendly design to this folder. It's built for daily tasks but also offers the satisfying operation of a well-tuned balisong.

Blade

The 3.35" blade uses S90V steel with a lightwash finish. S90V is a high-vanadium powder metallurgy stainless steel known for extreme edge retention and corrosion resistance. It's a challenging steel to sharpen but holds up exceptionally well to repeated use. The lightwash finish gives it a subtle, matte appearance that hides wear well.

Handle

Titanium handles are machined from a single piece of metal, giving the knife a robust and lightweight feel. Titanium is corrosion-proof, stronger than aluminum, and develops a unique patina with use. The integral construction and minimal hardware (just two screws and a pivot) contribute to its sleek, clean lines. At 3.5oz, it carries lighter than many titanium knives thanks to its efficient design.

Carry

The button lock mechanism is precise and satisfying to operate. A push of the button releases the blade, which can be opened manually or automatically (where legal). The pocket clip is reversible for right or left-hand carry and positions the knife tip-up. The bushing pivot system allows for free swing and rock-solid lockup, a hallmark of MachineWise's balisong heritage.
