BergBlades Mini Sweeney

Version: Stonewashed - Belt Satin

Pocket-Friendly The Sweeney is one of the most popular designs by Matt Westberg – and for good reason: it combines the best of three worlds. The handle takes inspiration from the Barber, the blade recalls the Tick, and the thumb hole comes from the Slim. But the Sweeney is much more than just a mash-up – its flowing lines look incredibly harmonious and feel like they were crafted from a single piece. With the Mini Sweeney, you get the same DNA in a more compact format. Same look, same character – just scaled down to fit even easier in your pocket. Despite its smaller size, it remains a real eye-catcher and a reliable everyday companion. The blade made from CPM Magnacut delivers modern high-end performance: extreme edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. It runs on ceramic bearings that sit on hardened steel washers – ensuring a buttery smooth action and long-lasting durability. You can open it via the thumb hole or the discreet front flipper, which is intuitive and quick to use. No detail has been overlooked: a hardened lockbar insert with overtravel stop, titanium liners, precisely finished inlays, and a 3D-milled titanium pocket clip complete the package. Each knife is also individually numbered – with the number discreetly placed on the inside of the backspacer. With the Mini Sweeney, you get a limited high-end tool that carries the unmistakable Berg Blades signature: thoughtful, functional, elegant – now in the perfect pocket-friendly size. Available variants: Titanium Black PVD with Green Micarta Titanium Beadblast with Carbon Fibre Full Titanium in Stonewash Finish
