Why M390 & Titanium Make the Arius Exceptional

The combination of M390 stainless steel and titanium construction creates one of the most desirable setups in premium folding knives.

  • M390 provides outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance
  • Titanium offers exceptional strength while keeping weight low
  • The combination delivers a durable, lightweight, and refined EDC platform
  • Premium materials ensure long-term performance and collectability

This material combination is a major reason the Koenig Arius has become a benchmark among high-end folding knives.

Action & Lock Performance

The Arius features Koenig's ceramic bearing pivot system, providing one of the smoothest deployment experiences available in a production folding knife. The flipper mechanism delivers fast, reliable opening with minimal friction.

The titanium frame lock provides strong blade security while maintaining the precision feel expected from a premium knife of this caliber.

Care & Maintenance
  • Keep the blade clean and dry after use
  • Apply light knife lubricant to the pivot as needed
