![]() ![]() Even though it’s a small knife, I can still fit all four fingers on the handle, and I don’t have small hands. The Vendetta has excellent ergonomics and feels great in hand. But if that acid stonewash isn’t your thing, you’re in luck because Compliance Edge has many options to choose from, including a custom Cerakote color option. The blade finish on my Vendetta is acid stonewash, and I think it looks fantastic. Nevertheless, the jimping feels good and does the job. The Vendetta has jimping along the spine, but it’s a little different than most jimping in that the ridges are more rounded and spaced slightly farther apart. The high flat grind along with the 5/32″ thickness makes my Vendetta S a great slicer, and best of all, it’s incredibly lightweight, weighing in at just 3 ounces. S35VN also seems to be a bit easier to sharpen over S30V in my testing.Īs mentioned, I opted for the S version of the Vendetta, and have been very pleased with that choice. Often called a “stainless” steel because of its corrosion resistance, S35VN has good wear resistance and strength, and excellent edge retention. If you’re not familiar with S35VN, it’s essentially a tougher version of S30V, and an overall excellent steel, especially for an EDC knife. Vendetta S Specs and Features OALĬompliance Edge uses S35VN for the Vendetta with a hardness of 59 HRC. I opted for the thinner S version, as I feel it’s a better choice for an EDC style blade. The standard Vendetta uses 1/4″ S35VN, whereas the Vendetta S uses a thinner 5/32″ S35VN. As of today, the Vendetta is offered in two different base configurations: the standard Vendetta, and the Vendetta S, the only difference between the two being blade thickness. It’s an EDC utility knife that hits the sweet spot in what I’m looking for in an everyday carry knife – big enough to use, small enough to conceal. The Vendetta is a custom knife that I categorize much like the custom Coye ForeRunner.
