Here's a mini multi-blade from China, about 3 cm ( a little over an inch).

Great replies, thanks all!  :tu:

There is a husband/wife team who showcase their miniature knife collection at knife shows, they have some mini-SAKs, that's where I first saw them.

I thought he said: "Th't's n't a knoife" etc.


Very nice knoife, where did you get it? It looks like Playmobil plastic from afar.

I have a small metal one with horn handle, a gift from a US member here.

Mine was made by a member of a flashlight collecting forum.  He says his fingers get very sore working with such a tiny implement.  This is damascus steel.
It even has a sharp edge!  I'm more worried about breathing in too deep and snorting it than I am cutting myself with it.  :rofl:

They exist... I know I have seen one, but right now, I can only find this:

Micro Champion (1inch / 25mm long)

It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.

Just figured it out: this one was made by a Canadian named Yvon Vachon. Sadly, he passed in 2001, so it will be darn hard to get one.

Poor old Action Man was always flying low... they gave him no end of cool guns but never a pair of kecks that would close properly.

It's not like he even needed a pair of kecks to open is it? My first Action Man caused me to have some existential crises  :facepalm:

Rest in peace Yvon Vachon.
I've got a book that contains a few pages about him.
Sadly it's packed in a box somewhere, since I'm about to move to our new house.

I've asked many knife makers to make me a miniature (not even a SAK), and they shy away from it.
They say the tooling is different and for some reason the cost involved is VERY expensive.
It's a labor of love for knife makers to make such intricate knives.
