The HJF-MAYA is a purpose-built folding knife designed to deliver a refined balance between everyday practicality and premium materials.
At its core, the MAYA features a 10 cm blade crafted from M390 stainless steel, known for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and long-term cutting stability. Offered in both hand-applied satin and DLC-coated finishes, the blade presents two distinct personalities — one clean and understated, the other dark and tactical — while maintaining a precise and controlled cutting performance across daily tasks and light food preparation.
The handle is machined from titanium and finished with a black PVD coating, providing a durable, wear-resistant surface with a clean, low-profile appearance. An anodized, engraved titanium inlay adds subtle texture and visual depth, enhancing grip without compromising the overall minimalist design.
A matching black PVD-coated titanium backspacer reinforces the structure, ensuring a solid and consistent feel in hand. With an overall handle length of 11.5 cm and a closed length of 12.5 cm, the MAYA remains compact in pocket while offering a full, confident grip during use.
Built as a reliable everyday carry tool, the JF-MAYA excels in controlled slicing, push cuts, and general utility work. Its blade geometry and balanced construction make it especially suited for users who prefer a compact, “pocket chef” style folding knife that transitions naturally between daily tasks and light food prep.
This model is produced in a limited batch of 300 pieces, combining practical performance with a level of exclusivity appreciated by enthusiasts.
Clean, capable, and purpose-driven — the JF-MAYA is designed to be carried, used, and relied on.
