- Marten
The original Marten was introduced in December of 2024 and quickly built a reputation as a compact everyday carry option. It featured a 2.98-inch blade made from 154CM steel, aluminum handles, and Vosteed’s Top Liner Lock. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to handle that first version myself. Vosteed knives tend to disappear quickly once they hit the market.
That’s largely because of how the company handles production. Rather than pumping out massive quantities of one model, Vosteed releases knives in batches so they can keep moving forward with new designs. The downside is that if you hesitate too long, they’re gone. The upside is that popular models often come back around later, sometimes with improvements.

What kind of people would write collect and review multitools? Quite simple really- we are designers and do-ers, outdoors types and indoor types, mechanics, doctors, problem solvers and problem makers. As such, we have, as a world spanning community, put every type, size and version of multitool, multifunction knife, pocket knife and all related products to every test we could manage in as many places and environments as there are.
