Description
The Sliwkosky Knives Urban Sheep “Noir” is a handy blade with a practical urban flair. Besides the noticeable symmetry of the design, reflected in the tip of the blade and the handle’s end, the knife stands out for its compact size, excellent grip ergonomics, and a blade with outstanding cutting properties. The Urban Sheep is distinguished primarily by its sheepsfoot blade profile, but with a curved cutting edge that can be used almost like a versatile drop point. Additionally, the hollow grind accentuates its excellent cutting properties, especially when preparing food, and the blade’s tip aids in tasks requiring pressure cuts.
The Sliwkosky Knives Urban Sheep “Noir” features a blade made of high-quality European Elmax steel with a satin finish on the grinds and a stonewashed finish on the flats and tang. The handle has scales made of black Micarta. The knife comes complete with a black Kydex sheath.

Urban Sheep Knife – Your Everyday Companion
Elmax Steel as the Core of the Knife’s Construction
The Urban Sheep knife features a full-tang construction, with the steel running through the entire length and width of the handle, to which the scales are attached. Full-tang construction is the most durable type of build found in fixed-blade knives.
This knife is built on top-tier Elmax steel, renowned worldwide in the knife community. This premium steel, sourced from UDDEHOLM group European mills, offers excellent performance characteristics: long-lasting sharpness, corrosion resistance, and exceptional durability with high wear resistance and strong resistance to mechanical damage.
Universal Blade for Any Challenge
The blade, with a spine thickness of 3.1 mm (0.12″), features a sheepsfoot style with a pronounced curve and a hollow grind, providing excellent cutting capabilities and versatile use. It’s perfect for preparing food, everyday tasks such as opening packages, cutting rope, and other similar activities.
Ergonomic Micarta Handle
The handle scales are crafted from micarta. Micarta is a durable material resistant to moisture, temperature changes, most solvents and acids, and possesses high mechanical damage resistance. Known for its excellent properties, including visual appeal (it can be styled to resemble natural materials), micarta has a non-slip, textured surface.
Longitudinal milling on the scales enhances the grip and provides decorative elements. Both materials are highly durable and robust. The scales are glued to the tang and secured with stainless steel tubes. The handle design includes a guard for safety (preventing the hand from slipping onto the cutting edge) and a choil before the cutting edge to facilitate sharpening. At the end of the handle, there is a hole for attaching a decorative item or a securing piece of cord, string, or paracord.
Kydex Sheath
For carrying and storing the knife, a Kydex sheath with a nylon loop is provided, offering flexibility during crouching and other user movements. The sheath has holes that can be used for threading paracord or attaching custom mounting solutions.
Kydex is known for its high impact resistance, scratch resistance, low moisture absorption, and resistance to various weather conditions and many chemicals.
