Notorious EDC Kingpin - classic meets modernThe Kingpin from Notorious EDC is a slipjoint that could hardly be more modern - and yet is deeply rooted in classic knife traditions. The idea that Stan Lee's Marvel character “Kingpin” could carry this very knife in the inside pocket of his jacket gives the design an iconic touch - and makes this knife far more than just a practical tool. Tom Medvedich's idea of a modern gentleman's folder is evident in every detail: the slim handle sits comfortably and securely in the hand thanks to a discreetly indicated recessed grip. A milled groove on the titanium handle provides visual depth and is reminiscent of a classic bolster. The blade stands out in particular: hollow-ground from Magnacut steel, with a long fuller and a striking Harpoon tip - a design that makes knife-loving hearts beat faster.
The version offered here features a jigged pattern on the titanium handle scales - a deliberate reminiscence of the classic slipjoints of the 19th century, whose handle scales were traditionally often made of textured bone. This textured pattern not only gives the knife additional grip, but also an aesthetic depth that perfectly combines old craftsmanship and modern manufacturing.
The Kingpin thus symbolizes a renaissance of the slipjoint knife: classic mechanics meet high-tech materials such as titanium and powder metallurgical steel. The combination of functionality, design and historical echoes makes it an exceptional EDC.
The Kingpin is manufactured by Reate - which stands for absolute top quality. Thanks to the slipjoint design, it is also legal to carry in many European countries. This makes it the ideal companion for all those who not only want to carry function and character in their pocket carry, but also that certain something.
The Kingpin is supplied with high-quality leather briefs and a cleaning cloth.
Available in two versions: Black PVD and Titan Beadblast - each with a jigged pattern on the handle scales.
Ships with a premium leather slip and cleaning cloth.

The Crown series takes the sleek design of Notorious EDC’s premium knives and makes it more accessible for everyday carry. Instead of titanium, this version features high-quality milled aluminum, which not only looks fantastic but also provides a great feel in hand thanks to its fine lines and distinctive Faux Bolster contour.What’s a Faux Bolster?A traditional bolster is a separate piece at the front of the handle, usually made of a different material for extra reinforcement. Here, the same effect is achieved through precise milling, creating the look of a bolster without adding extra weight. The result? A clean, elegant design with a refined contrast.As for the blade steel, Notorious EDC sticks to a true classic: S35VN – sharp, durable, and trusted for years.The discreet liner lock with a stainless steel insert ensures secure blade lock-up, while the front flipper on bearings provides lightning-fast deployment and buttery smooth closing. And thanks to the deep carry clip, the knife stays securely and discreetly in your pocket.

The idea that Stan Lee's Marvel character "Kingpin" could carry such a pocket knife in the inside pocket of his jacket makes this sting all the more interesting. Yet the Kingpin is by no means a typical comic gangster knife, but much more Tom Medvedich's idea of a modern gentleman folder. First of all, the handle is quite straight, but thanks to its discreet recessed grip, it sits very securely in the hand. A milled groove on the titanium indicates a bolster, which visually loosens up the design a bit. The star of the show on the Kingpin is clearly the blade: hollow ground, made of M390, with a long fuller - knife heart, what more could you want! The Harpoon-style blade runs really pointed, giving the knife a very nice, modern touch. By the way, the Kingpin is manufactured by Reate, which promises the highest quality!
