The NeOn is the compact everyday-carry folder in the range, a Sergey Shirogorov design announced at the fall 2014 Arsenal show and in serial production from 2015, with a titanium frame lock, a deep-carry clip and a blade thinner than the larger models. The line is organized as variants rather than generations. The original NeOn, thirty pieces with 3D-milled scales in S90V on single-row rollers, came from the workshop in October 2015; the Lite, flat-scaled and milled inside for weight, was shown as a prototype at Arms and Hunting the same month and reached its first owners through the members' lottery that December; the Ultra Lite, the most skeletonized, ran 2016 to 2019 and has no backspacer. The NeOn Zero enlarged the blade in the same handle by moving the pivot forward, with a new generation announced 11 May 2019, and was reissued in July 2020 as the R20 for Recon1's 20th anniversary. The NeOn NL of April 2020 added inlaid scales and Cromax PM as a steel option. The NeOn Lefty of February 2021 was the factory's first left-handed model. The Lite was refreshed in May 2024 and again in December 2025, with a Lite Lefty in February 2026. Annual bronze anodized editions, dealer exclusives and Custom Division NeOns on SRRBS run alongside, and a Sinkevich Touch NeOn Zero set of 50 was sold at CCKS Fall 2022. The line is current.
