Vosteed’s 2026 releases show how much variety the young knife brand has packed into its catalog: slim titanium folders, feature-rich locking designs, refreshed favorites and a compact fixed blade. The picks below cover releases from January through October, with details ranging from blade steel and locking systems to the intended feel in hand. Prices are listed where the source provides them.

Vosteed is celebrating its fourth anniversary this year. In that short run, it has built a broad range that includes folders and fixed blades, along with a particularly slim lineup of locking knives. The 2026 releases offer a useful cross-section of the brand’s approach: familiar models get new materials or practical refinements, while some designs stand out for their unusual ways of opening.

Versatile folders and familiar favorites

The Corgi VV brings together features from earlier versions of the compact EDC knife, with multiple ways to deploy the blade. The Marten 330 takes a more restrained direction: a button-locking gentleman’s knife with a new, more affordable edition. Specialty carbon-fiber versions refine its familiar shape and ergonomic grip, with two handle treatments available.

Vosteed also revises its flagship Raccoon folder. The Crossbarlock 2.0 gets a visual refresh and performance improvements, while the Raccoon TiSlim pares the design down into a slim, light titanium version. The year’s broader slate also includes a playful reworking of the tiny Corgi V.

The Raccoon TiSlim brings the recognizable model into a thinner titanium format. A separate Porcupine TiSlim offers another take on low-profile carry.

Thin profiles, premium materials

The Parallel adds a utilitarian update to Vosteed’s ultra-thin titanium folder, retaining the traits that defined the earlier design while addressing a key user complaint. The Porcupine TiSlim similarly puts compact carry at the center. Its newer edition keeps the blade’s size and shape but upgrades the steel to S90V. A stonewashed titanium handle has a machined pattern reminiscent of craters. The listed price is $159 in Antique Brass or Blue.

For a higher-performance folder, the Nymble pairs Elmax steel with titanium in a collaboration with John Rusk of EMP EDC. The Thunderbeast takes inspiration from paleontology and Indigenous American mythology, with a titanium handle. The Thunderbird V joins Vosteed’s pivot lock with M390 steel and four deployment methods, combining a versatile opening system with premium materials.

Distinctive designs and a fixed-blade option

The Psyop brings a button lock and high-performance steel together with a Current Micarta handle. Each knife has its own pattern, including examples in the same colorway. Elsewhere, Vosteed’s cleaver-style folder gets premium material and performance changes with help from Divo Knives.

Two designs round out the range. The Zander has five deployment methods: front flipper, back flipper, thumb stud, thumb hole and button-assisted flick. Its 3.4-inch drop-point blade uses S35VN steel, and the aluminum scales pair with Vosteed’s Vanchor button lock. The listed price is $169.

The Nip-L reworks the Divo Nip with a 3.15-inch blade, up from the original’s 2.25 inches. It switches from S90V to Elmax, adds a titanium handle and button lock, and aims for a more ergonomic, convenient design. Its listed price is $249.

The Inferno is the collection’s fixed blade, designed with Nick of the Stassa23 YouTube channel as his first fixed-blade project. It’s aimed at everyday utility and detailed tasks. Its 3.57-inch blade is thick, stonewashed 14C28N steel; a Micarta handle provides grip, and the rotating Kydex sheath can turn in any direction. The listed price is $82. Those contrasting designs make the range worth a closer look: buyers can choose by carry profile, opening method, steel and intended task.
