Flytanium is best known for its deep catalog of custom EDC knife parts, which allow you to comprehensively transform some of the knifemaking industry’s most iconic and popular folders. What you might not know is that the brand actually offers its own collection of complete knives, which are both well-designed and often surprisingly affordable.

Just this year, in fact, the brand dropped the Flytanium Arcade, a retro video game-inspired knife, and the Minim keychain folder.

Before both of those, however, the brand dropped an all-around outstanding value-packed knife called the Flytanium Beef at the tail-end of 2024. Now, that very same knife is making a triumphant comeback.

All killer, no filler

The true beauty of the Flytanium Beef is in its balance of value and affordability. It’s not a particularly showy knife, nor are its materials mind-blowing, but they don’t need to be. They just need to get the job done, and that’s exactly what they do.

For reference, the knife is priced at $60 apiece. By today’s standards, that’s squarely in the budget-friendly realm, verging on qualifying as an ultra-budget EDC knife (at least as far as trustworthy options are concerned).
