Yan Knives EMW (East Meets West) Double Flipper Folding Knife (No Inlay) YANEMWNI

The Yan Knives EMW (East Meets West) Double Flipper is a bold departure from the ordinary, built for those who demand innovation, precision, and style in one striking package. Designed by Andrew Do and crafted in partnership with Reate Knives, this folding knife brings together dual utility and fine craftsmanship with a design that’s as functional as it is head-turning. Whether you’re a collector, enthusiast, or professional who appreciates cutting-edge engineering, the EMW delivers performance with attitude.

At the core of this design are two 3-inch blades made from premium Bohler M390 stainless steel. Known for its outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and overall toughness, M390 is a favorite in high-end knife builds. Each blade operates independently using its own flipper tab, gliding out on buttery-smooth pivot systems into rock-solid framelocks. The dual-blade configuration allows for versatile carry and task selection—whether you’re using one side for fine work and the other for rougher jobs, or simply enjoying the novelty and practicality of dual blades.

The handles are precision-machined from bead blasted titanium, offering both strength and sleek aesthetics. Weight-reducing cutouts not only lighten the carry but add visual appeal, revealing thoughtful design beneath the surface. The symmetrical layout and balanced geometry make the knife feel surprisingly natural in hand, despite its unconventional form.

Closed, the EMW measures 4.5 inches—compact enough for pocket carry while still housing two full-sized working blades. The included black leather sheath with a stainless steel clip is custom-fit for secure storage and transport, offering an elegant alternative to pocket clip carry. Also included are a microfiber cleaning cloth and Yan Knives stickers, making this knife a complete presentation and user experience right out of the box.

Designed for those who move between worlds, who think beyond limits, and who don’t settle for the expected, the EMW lives up to its name—East truly meets West in this finely crafted, high-performance tool.
