Itzi — A Modern Edge with Ancient Meaning
The Itzi Knife is a compact EDC rooted in Mesoamerican myth and material culture. Its name comes from a shortened form of Itztli—obsidian—referencing the razor-sharp volcanic glass once used by Mayan civilizations for tools, ritual blades, and mirrors. Obsidian symbolized precision, transformation, and the thin boundary between worlds.
That symbolism carries forward in the Itzi Knife’s purpose. Designed as a small, agile blade for everyday use, it delivers clean, confident cuts without excess or distraction. From opening packages and trimming cord to handling quick camp tasks, Itzi moves smoothly through daily life, always ready but never intrusive.
Its streamlined profile and dark, understated character echo obsidian’s essence without replicating ancient artifacts. For users drawn to tools with depth and story, the Itzi Knife offers a modern expression of an edge shaped by centuries of meaning.
