Squid Industries Mako Black Trainer Butterfly Knife / Bottle Opener

Experience the thrill of precision flipping and everyday utility with the Squid Industries Mako Black Trainer Butterfly Knife / Bottle Opener V4.5. Inspired by the unstoppable power of the ocean’s most agile predator, this trainer is built to elevate your skills and punctuate your adventures with a satisfying “pop” when you crack open a cold one.

Every feature has been reimagined for maximum performance. We moved the signature “gill” grooves closer to the zen pins, delivering razor-sharp tactile feedback that locks your fingers in place during rapid-fire tricks. Slimmer, sleeker channels now showcase beefed-up handle walls, boosting toughness without weighing you down. The result? A balanced, aggressive profile that feels as good as it looks.

Crafted from aerospace-grade 6061 T6511 aluminum and finished with a bead-blasted, anodized coat, the Mako V4.5 strikes the perfect harmony between lightweight agility and rock-solid durability. Its 4.95″ 304 stainless steel blade—designed purely for practice and popping caps—offers the ideal weight distribution for silky-smooth spins and flips. Whether you’re learning your first aerial roll or executing a flawless figure-eight, the Mako responds instantly to your smallest input.

Hand-assembled and rigorously tested in the USA, every Mako arrives thread-locked and ready to master any environment. No more loose pivots or catching latches—our latchless design means instant deployment and uninterrupted flow. Slide it into your pocket or clip it to your EDC kit; you’ll be ready to wow friends at the park and unwind at the backyard barbecue.

Each V4.5 ships in a sleek protective box, accompanied by a plush microfiber pouch and a bold Squid decal. It’s more than just a trainer—it’s a statement piece, a conversation starter, and a versatile tool built to inspire confidence and creativity.

Elevate your flipping game and embrace a new level of everyday practicality with the Squid Industries Mako Black Trainer V4.5. Where razor-sharp design meets laid-back convenience, there’s no limit to what you can achieve.
