Sleek, lethal, and built for those who move in silence, the Pin Up Specter is the ultimate low-profile dagger. With a 9.625-inch overall length and a featherweight build, it’s designed for rapid deployment and concealment, keeping you prepared without compromise.

At its core is a 4.75-inch CPM M4 steel blade, renowned for its razor-sharp edge retention and unmatched toughness. Finished in KG Gunkote, this finish enhances durability and corrosion resistance, ensuring the Specter thrives even in the harshest conditions.

Designed for both traditional and reverse grips, its symmetrical profile allows for versatile handling, making it a trusted companion for tactical operators, edc, and self defense. Paired with a DuoTone KYDEX sheath featuring adjustable retention, the Specter ensures a silent draw and secure carry, whether you’re moving through the shadows or traversing through your everyday life.

At $350, the Pin Up Specter is more than a blade—it’s a legacy in steel, built for those who walk the line between tradition, functionality, and style.

Pin Up Mullet – The Hard-Hitting Breacher

If power in a compact package is what you seek, look no further than the Pin Up Mullet. With an 8.5-inch overall length, 7.5-ounce weight, and a 0.1875-inch thick CPM M4 steel blade, this mid-sized fixed blade bridges the gap between agility and brute force.

The short swerve grind reinforces the tip, ensuring maximum penetration with minimal resistance, while the Micarta handle with G10 liners provides a rock-solid grip even in extreme conditions. Designed for horizontal (scout) carry, the Mullet sits comfortably at the mid-back, making it a seamless addition to any kit.

What truly sets the Mullet apart is its Breacher Ball—a 0.1875-inch tungsten carbide ball press-fit into the hardened tang, allowing the end user to shatter standard, tempered, and safety glass without much fuss. Whether in an emergency or on a mission, this feature makes the Mullet a force to be reckoned with and integral tool when seconds matter. 

Paired with a FlexTech KYDEX sheath, the Mullet offers rapid deployment and secure carry, making it a trusted tool for those who refuse to be unprepared.

At $325, the Pin Up Mullet isn’t just a knife—it’s a lifeline, designed for those who face the unexpected head-on.

Pin Up Apnea – The Maritime Warrior

Inspired by the resilience of maritime and amphibious operators, the Pin Up Apnea is a blade built for piercing, slicing, and survival in the toughest conditions. With a harpoon-style CPM CruWear steel blade, it offers exceptional edge retention, wear resistance, and battle-ready durability.

Enhanced through double tempering and cryogenic treatment, the Apnea’s steel is forged to endure, whether on land or at sea. Its traditionally curved blade ensures effortless cutting and easy resharpening, making it a versatile tool for tactical missions to everyday carry.

The Micarta handle with G10 liners provides a lightweight yet rugged grip, while the recurve pommel and jimping on the thumb ramp enhance handling precision in wet or high-pressure environments easy. Finished with Toor’s signature grip pattern, this knife guarantees a firm hold even in the harshest conditions.

Equipped with a custom-fitted Kydex sheath, the Apnea is always ready for action, offering secure carry and rapid deployment when seconds matter.

At $295, the Pin Up Apnea is the blade for those who push beyond limits, whether diving into the unknown or navigating the urban jungle.
