Fast Action. Lasting Edge.

Get to Know the Griffin Ultralight

Normandy Knives

Workhorse power, featherweight feel.

The original Griffin earned its reputation as a tanky workhorse, built tough for those who needed a serious everyday carry. But some users wanted the same power in a lighter, more portable package. That’s where the Griffin Ultralight comes in. Crafted with anodized aluminum and available in four sleek colors, it delivers the reach and fast deployment of a full-size tactical OTF without the extra bulk. Designed to handle heavy work while keeping carry fatigue low, the Ultralight is proof you don’t have to sacrifice strength for speed or portability.

Why Choose the Griffin Ultralight?

Serious Cutting Reach Without the Bulk

You get close to full large-Griffin performance but with noticeably less weight, making it more comfortable to carry and more practical for users who demand length but dislike heavy gear.

Premium blade options of the D'gado knife

Fast Action, Tactical Ready

OTF deployment, with belt clip & glass breaker — everything you need for tactical or emergency use, but optimized to reduce “dead” weight.

Option Flexibility

Serrated vs non-serrated, color choices, and size mean you can match the Ultralight to your environment. Want stealth? Black / non-serrated / smaller size. Want visibility or a rescue tool? Color options + glass breaker.

Better Comfort Over Time

When a knife is lighter and well balanced, it’s less fatiguing to carry, easier to access, more likely to get used (versus sitting unused because it’s heavy or bulky). Useful especially if you carry daily or for long periods.

Griffin Ultralight FAQ

How much does the Ultralight version weigh versus standard Griffin?

The large Ultralight is ~5.4 oz, which is about 4 oz less than the standard Cerakote large Griffin. (Exact numbers vary by size/variant.)

What is the difference in finish/coating that lets Ultralight shed weight?

It uses anodized aluminum handles and lighter finishes (instead of heavy ceramic coatings like Cerakote) while retaining necessary features. The weight savings come from removing or reducing material/coating weight.

For which users is the ultralight best suited?

-Anyone who carries daily and cares about weight/concealability.
-Outdoor adventurers who need reach but want to reduce pack load.
-Users who want a large blade but still want to stay stealthy or minimize carry fatigue.
