North Edge Tools Meridian - Maple Valley Richlite - Bead Blasted MagnaCut Blade

MagnaCut Fixed Blade with Richlite Handles

The Meridian from North Edge Tools is a compact fixed blade built for everyday carry and detailed cutting tasks. Its smaller footprint makes it a practical choice for users who want premium materials in an easy-to-carry package.

Blade

The 3" blade is made from MagnaCut steel with a bead blasted finish. MagnaCut is a modern powder metallurgy steel that balances high edge retention, strong corrosion resistance, and good toughness, making it one of the most well-rounded steels available today. At 0.113" thick, the blade is nimble enough for fine cutting while still holding up to daily use.

Handle

The handle uses Maple Valley Richlite, a dense composite made from layered paper fibers saturated with resin. Richlite is valued for its stability, smooth finish, and resistance to moisture, giving the knife a durable grip surface at 4.5" long.

Carry

The Meridian ships with a leather sheath for traditional belt carry. As a fixed blade with no moving parts, there is no lock to engage - the sheath provides secure retention and quick access when the knife is needed.

Made in the USA.
