Glowing Tighe Fighter Knife
This limited-production Tighe “Fighter” custom knife blends precision craftsmanship with AGT™ photoluminescent technology. Using AGT™ Safety Yellow Fine Glow Sand embedded into a sculpted resin and carbon fiber handle, the piece offers both a striking daytime aesthetic and a vivid glow after dark.
Project Details
- Substrate: Carbon Fiber & Resin
- Glow Product Used: AGT™ Safety Yellow Fine Glow Sand
- Location: Saint Catharines, ON, Canada
In daylight, the TIGHE “FIGHTER” displays its bold contrasts — a patterned Damascus steel blade paired with a contoured carbon fiber handle. The glowing inlay appears subtly woven into the resin, enhancing the texture and form of the knife without overpowering its craftsmanship. The piece reads as a functional work of art, engineered with the precision TIGHE knives are known for.
As night falls, the handle ignites with a sharp, high-visibility Safety Yellow glow. Charged naturally by sunlight or ambient UV light, the AGT™ Fine Glow Sand releases a strong afterglow that highlights the contours of the grip and transforms the knife’s silhouette into something entirely new. The glow is both visually captivating and practical, offering enhanced visibility in low-light environments.
This glowing effect was achieved by casting AGT™ Safety Yellow Fine Glow Sand into the resin handle. The fine particle size allows for crisp detailing, even distribution, and exceptional glow output—ideal for small-format designs where clarity and precision matter.
This project demonstrates how AGT™ glow materials can elevate not only large installations like glowing pathways and public trails, but also small-scale craft applications such as custom tools, knives, and resin art. With no electricity required, AGT™ photoluminescent products introduce ambient illumination that enhances beauty, usability, and design storytelling.
Bring your next craft, resin, or custom fabrication project to life with AGT™ Fine Glow Sand available in Safety Yellow, Aqua Blue, and Sky Blue. As the brightest glow in the dark additive on the market, AGT™ helps transform everyday materials into glowing features that stand out both day and night.
