Krush by Jürgen Schanz – Masterful precision meets uncompromising performance
The Krush pocket knife embodies true craftsmanship and brings Jürgen Schanz’s unmistakable signature to a modern EDC one-handed knife. As one of Germany’s most renowned knife makers, he combines decades of experience with an uncompromising commitment to quality, resulting in a knife that impresses both functionally and aesthetically.
From a grinding shop steeped in tradition, a philosophy has evolved in which precision, durability, and design mesh perfectly. At the same time, the Krush reflects the close, almost familial collaboration between Jürgen Schanz and Bastards Knives—marked by trust, passion, and a shared commitment to creating exceptional knives.
CPM 3V Blade – Extreme Durability Meets Cutting Pleasure
The 9.6 cm long blade made of CPM 3V steel was developed for the most demanding conditions. Thanks to its exceptional toughness and edge retention, it delivers performance that remains reliable even under intensive use.
- CPM 3V steel for extreme durability
- High edge retention for long-lasting sharpness
- 3.5 mm blade thickness for maximum stability
The result is a high-performance EDC knife that doesn’t falter even under pressure.
Titanium Frame Lock – Unparalleled Stability
The 6AL4V titanium frame lock ensures a particularly secure lock and facilitates controlled operation. At the same time, the material achieves an ideal balance between weight and stability.
- Frame Lock for Reliable Security
- Titanium Construction for Extreme Durability
- Precise and Stable Locking
This results in a robust one-handed knife you can rely on at all times.
Ceramic Ball Bearing – Precision in Motion
The built-in ceramic ball bearing enables exceptionally smooth blade movement. This not only facilitates quick opening but also ensures pleasantly controlled handling.
Combined with the well-thought-out design, the result is a high-quality folding knife that perfectly blends technology and performance.
Titanium Handle – Minimalist, Strong, Distinctive
The 6AL4V titanium handle embodies modern elegance and extreme durability. At the same time, the ergonomic shape ensures a secure and comfortable grip, even during extended use.
With a total length of 22 cm, it offers a balanced size that perfectly combines control and presence. The result is an EDC utility knife that integrates seamlessly into your everyday life.
Craftsmanship, Community & Passion
The collaboration with Bastards Knives goes beyond a typical project—it’s defined by mutual respect and a genuine passion for knives. It’s precisely this connection that makes the Krush something special.
The KAMFT exhibition, initiated by Jürgen, also reflects what he stands for: quality, exchange, and a community that feels more like a family. This feeling is also reflected in every detail of this knife.
