SEISMIC™ WITH VEFF SERRATIONS™
Designed by Flavio Ikoma in Presidente Prudente, Brazil
Batten down the hatches. We’re convinced that the word “dainty” isn’t in Designer Flavio Ikoma’s vocabulary. We take his new Deadbolt® innovation as definitive proof. With it, the Seismic™ Black everyday carry folder has proven to be outrageously strong without compromising on simplicity or usability—it’s got other folders quaking in their boots.
- Innovative Deadbolt® locking mechanism is simple to use and provides incredible strength
- Flipper opening combined with IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system deploys the blade smooth and fast
- G10 handles provide exceptional grip in all weather conditions
- Veff Serrations™ provide superior cutting of fibrous materials

For years, Flavio Ikoma of Presidente Prudente, Brazil toiled over the mechanism that was to become the Deadbolt® lock. Finally, it’s perfected: steel bolts interlock with the steel blade and the liners when it’s deployed to yield outrageous strength. The IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system ensures it opens quickly and smoothly. A prominent button sits at the pivot point on the highly ergonomic G10 handle for simple disengagement. Patented Veff Serrations™ offer superior cutting of cordage, rope, and fibrous materials.
As a finishing detail, Flavio added a discreet torx screw in the handle for deployment customization. Modify the blade detent for an easier or more powerful flip.
Seismic™ sets a new precedent for strength and simplicity.
How Deadbolt® Works
Steel bolts interlock with the blade when it’s deployed to yield outrageous strength. A prominent button sits at the pivot point for simple, intuitive disengagement without fingers crossing the path of the blade.

Some kids dream of being a ballplayer. Flavio wanted to be a knifemaker. In his adolescence, he worked on knives of the Japanese sword variety in his father’s shop. He has gone on to learn metallurgy, to work with Ken Onion, and to become a force for innovation. Not only has Flavio brought to market the revolutionary IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system (with Rick Lala), but he also showed the world that there’s impressive strength in simplicity with his game-changing Deadbolt® innovation.
