QSP – QS130V2C2 – Penguin V2 – Folding Knife – D2 Stonewash Sheepsfoot – Micarta – Green

Description

The QSP QS130V2C2 Penguin V2 is a refined everyday carry folding knife that combines a practical cutting profile, dependable materials, and upgraded action in a compact, pocket-friendly package. Built around the popular Penguin platform, this V2 configuration pairs a black stonewashed D2 tool steel blade with comfortable green Micarta scales, creating a versatile EDC knife designed for routine cutting, slicing, opening packages, camp chores, and other everyday tasks. The specific QS130V2C2 configuration is also recognized by its D2 blade and green Micarta construction, making it a particularly appealing choice for users who want practical performance without moving into a higher price class. At the heart of the QS130V2C2 is a 3.06-inch sheepsfoot blade made from D2 tool steel. The sheepsfoot profile emphasizes a long, predominantly straight cutting edge, making it especially well suited to controlled slicing and chopping-style cuts. D2 is a popular tool steel for working knives because it offers a useful combination of edge retention, toughness, and wear resistance. The black stonewashed finish gives the blade a subdued appearance while helping disguise the cosmetic marks that naturally develop through regular use. The Penguin V2 also brings a meaningful mechanical upgrade over the original design. Its pivot uses ceramic ball bearings for smooth blade movement, and the pivot system is designed to accommodate alternative bronze or Teflon washers if the owner prefers a different operating feel. Enthusiasts have specifically noted that the V2’s upgraded bearings and thumb stud provide noticeably smoother action while retaining a stronger detent. Deployment is handled by a thumb stud positioned for straightforward one-handed operation. Once open, the blade is secured by a liner lock, providing a familiar and uncomplicated locking system for everyday carry. The 4.00-inch closed length keeps the knife compact when stowed, while its 7.06-inch overall open length provides enough handle real estate for a comfortable and controlled grip. The green Micarta handle scales give the QS130V2C2 a distinctive, understated appearance while providing a lightly textured surface that remains comfortable in the hand. Micarta is well suited to an EDC knife because it offers a secure grip without the overly aggressive texture that can make some handles uncomfortable during extended use. The handle’s ergonomic proportions complement the Penguin’s straightforward utility-focused design. For convenient everyday carry, the QS130V2C2 is equipped with a reversible deep-carry pocket clip configured for tip-up carry. This allows the knife to ride discreetly and securely in a pocket while giving users the flexibility to select their preferred carry side. At just 3.28 ounces, the Penguin V2 offers a useful balance between substantial construction and lightweight portability.
