Sergey Rogovets Custom Revenant – Baker Forge Damascus

Industrial titanium construction, wire mesh accents, and flowing Baker Forge Damascus come together in Sergey Rogovets’ Revenant, creating a folder that immediately stands apart from the crowd. At the center of the build is a 3.70 inch Baker Forge Damascus blade featuring a compound hollow grind that gives the pattern room to unfold across the length of the blade. A flowing copper-rich pattern cuts across the blade from tip to flipper, creating dramatic contrast against the darker Damascus layers surrounding it. Rather than relying solely on pattern density, the composition creates movement across the entire blade, drawing the eye from the cutting edge all the way back to the pivot. The blade deploys via flipper tab and rides on bearings for exceptionally smooth action. Opening is accompanied by a crisp mechanical report that feels as refined as the rest of the build. Disengage the frame lock and the blade glides through its closing arc with remarkable ease, requiring very little encouragement from the user. The balanced blade and bearing system work together to create a smooth, controlled closing action that feels almost effortless. Measuring 0.170 inches thick, the blade delivers the robust feel expected from a Rogovets design while maintaining an aggressive cutting profile through the hollow grind. The broad blade profile provides ample visual real estate for the Damascus pattern while reinforcing the knife’s substantial presence. The titanium handle follows the same theme of purposeful contrast. Clean titanium slabs are interrupted by recessed wire mesh windows that add texture, depth, and visual interest without overwhelming the overall design. The result is a handle that feels modern and industrial while remaining unmistakably custom in appearance. A hardened lock bar insert provides a durable lock interface, while the titanium backspacer, titanium tip-up pocket clip, and frame lock construction complete the build. At 5.99 ounces, the Revenant carries reassuring weight in hand while remaining balanced throughout the handle and blade. What makes the Revenant particularly memorable is how successfully it combines two very different design languages. The titanium frame and wire mesh accents project a mechanical, almost architectural appearance, while the Baker Forge Damascus introduces flowing organic lines and copper highlights throughout the blade. Together they create a design that feels cohesive, distinctive, and instantly recognizable. Completed in May 2026, Serial #2622, and includes its Certificate of Authenticity and soft case.
