Choose the opening mechanism and size first, then the color. The Diablo is an automatic, the Chive is assisted, and the three Spyderco models are manual. Check the requirements for where you plan to own and carry your chosen model.

The original ten pink models

1. Ontario RAT I

Historical model: a current Knife Depot buying link for the Ontario RAT I in pink is not confirmed. See the current pink options above.

Ontario RAT I

We're kicking things off with a highly renowned EDC. The Ontario RAT I was on our list of EDC knife comparisons. With its 3.5-inch satin-finished blade, the knife is known for taking a beating and still performing.

This knife is great for everything, including the outdoors and around the house. The nylon handle is a delectable pink.

2. Kershaw Chive, Pink

Kershaw Chive, Pink

The Kershaw Chive is a nice little knife with an alluring shape. From the inventive mind of Ken Onion, this knife features a small 1.9-inch blade made of 420HC stainless steel with a bead-blasted finish.

It bursts to life using the Speedsafe assisted-opening mechanism. The 6061-T6 anodized aluminum handle has a pink anodized finish.

3. Spyderco Squeak

Spyderco Squeak

With a 2-inch blade, the Spyderco Squeak is another knife that fits nonchalantly in a bag or pocket. The pink handle is FRN.

The Squeak uses Spyderco’s round opening hole and a nonlocking notch-joint mechanism. It is a manual knife, so compare that mechanism with a locking folder before choosing it.

4. KA-BAR Dozier Folding Hunter, Pink

Historical model: a current Knife Depot buying link for the pink KA-BAR Dozier is not confirmed. See the current pink options above.

KA-BAR Dozier Folding Hunter, Pink

The KA-BAR Folding Dozier is a beast. Don't let the cheap price or the pink scales scare you off. This knife comes from the mind of Bob Dozier and uses a straightforward folding design for everyday cutting tasks.

5. Cold Steel Broken Skull, Pink

Historical model: a current Knife Depot buying link for the pink Cold Steel Broken Skull is not confirmed. See the current pink options above.

Cold Steel Broken Skull, Pink

The Broken Skull is a folder designed by Steve Austin with cues taken from the iconic Buck 110 Folding Hunter. The knife has a long 4-inch black-coated blade that locks into place with Demko's reliable Tri-Ad lock. The contoured G-10 handles are an eye-catching pink.

The black accents clash well with the pink handle scales.

6. Boker Plus Cruel Girl

Historical model: a current Knife Depot buying link for the Boker Plus Cruel Girl is not confirmed. See the current pink options above.

Boker Plus Cruel Girl

The Cruel Girl series from Boker Plus is meant to bring color and personality to the world of working knives. Just because a knife is pink doesn't mean it can't handle everyday tasks. This backlocking knife has a partially serrated 3.1-inch blade made from AUS8 steel. There is an oval notch in the blade for one-handed opening.

The pink FRP handle scales are lightly textured.

7. Uncle Henry Pink Stockman

Historical model: a current Knife Depot buying link for the Uncle Henry 897UHP Pink Stockman is not confirmed. See the current pink options above.

Uncle Henry Pink Stockman

The stockman is a classic and unassuming design, so it's only fitting that it also gets the pink treatment. This Uncle Henry model has three blades, steel bolsters, and pink handles.

8. ESEE RAT Izula

Historical model: a current Knife Depot buying link for the pink ESEE Izula kit is not confirmed. See the current pink options above.

ESEE RAT Izula

The Izula is the only knife on this list that's completely pink. This fixed blade knife is as versatile as they come. The 2.63-inch blade makes it great to carry underneath your clothing or even as a survival knife. The skeletonized handle gives you the ability to wrap paracord or attach a handle.

This iteration of the knife comes with a kit that includes a sheath, paracord, emergency whistle, MOLLE lock, and more.

9. Victorinox Classic SD, Pink

Historical model: Knife Depot no longer carries Swiss Army knives. This entry is retained for reference; see the current pink options above.

Victorinox Classic SD, Pink

When compiling this list of 10 knives, I was torn between adding the pink Victorinox Classic SD or the translucent pink Victorinox Classic SD. I opted for the Classic SD Pink. This knife is the pink version of one of the best-selling knives ever made.

10. Spyderco Native 5, Pink

Historical model: a current Knife Depot buying link for the pink Spyderco Native 5 is not confirmed. See the current pink options above.

Spyderco Native 5, Pink

Finally, there's the Native 5 in pink. Just because a knife is pink doesn't mean it can't be made of the best materials. The Native 5 is a popular Spyderco model with a great design that's the perfect size for everyday carry.

The blade is just under 3 inches with S30V steel and lightweight FRN scales. The backlock is a tried-and-true locking mechanism, and the handle allows the user to hold the knife in different grips.

The Native 5 and Lil’ Native are different models. The current Lil’ Native option above is a separately identified alternative, not a replacement listing for this historical Native 5.

    I hate pink knives and pink guns but that Izula actually looks nice.

      Look at it this way: No guy will steal it from you.

    Great list! It’s cool to see bright colors like pink making their way into functional EDC gear—the ESEE RAT Izula in pink actually looks surprisingly sleek. I always keep a clean folding blade on me, especially when traveling or grabbing a quick meal on the go. Sometimes restaurant cutlery just doesn’t cut it when you’re working through hefty steak or rack options on a full Cheddar’s menu, so having a reliable blade handy comes in surprisingly useful. Thanks for sharing these!
