EL Lander 7 - 14C28N - Moondust Micarta

We've covered a lot of ground with the Lander series. But we never went big. No meathook-and-ham-hands knives — that is, not until now.

The message showed up in our inbox, our comments, our DMs, probably tattooed on somebody's forearm by now: "make it bigger." Some of you have hands like Andre the Giant and a size 14 boot to match, and the smaller Landers just weren't cutting it. So we built the one you'd been asking for — our Falcon Heavy moment: same Lander DNA, way more rocket.

This is the last Lander in the series. Seven's a good number to land on.

Making a knife this size isn't "take the Lander 1 and stretch it in Illustrator." Geometry doesn't work that way, and neither does steel. Blade-to-handle proportions, pivot placement, liner thickness, flipper tab positioning — every bit of it had to be rebuilt from scratch to feel balanced at this scale instead of just feeling like a clumsy, oversized version of a smaller knife. A handful of prototypes later, this is the one that finally felt right.

A 3.70" drop point blade in 14C28N, an overall length pushing 8.6", and a full liner lock built to match the size — no dainty stuff here. It's also the first back flipper in the Lander family, backed by the long, monstrous jimping running across the spine and the Fast Swap scales you already know, now joined by fully open-source handle scales (CC BY 4.0) for the DIY and 3D-printing crowd who want to make it their own.

Not a flipper person? No sweat — the thumb stud you already know from the Lander line is here too, compatible with all 4mm Lander/Yuti/OCT studs.

We built this one with Tracy and the team at HB Plus in Yangjiang — 28 years in the industry, and one of the biggest names in it. Big knife, big collaborator. Felt right.

For the big-handed, big-boot-wearing, "why does everything have to be so small" crowd — this one's for you.
