EDC Slip Joint Gentleman's Folder with G10 Handle

Modern EDC Slip Joint Gentleman's Folder with G10 Handle

A Return to Roots and Modern Knife Legislation

Traditional folding knives with a slip joint mechanism have accompanied humanity since Roman times, but they saw their greatest popularity in the late 19th century. Today, these knives are experiencing a massive renaissance for a very practical reason. Many European countries heavily restrict the carrying of knives that can be opened with one hand and lock simultaneously. This stylish knife is opened in the classic two-handed manner using a nail nick, and the blade is held in the open position solely by the pressure of a strong backspring. This places it firmly in the category of a gentleman's folder, which is highly socially acceptable and does not attract unwanted attention.

Highly Durable Materials for Everyday Use

The handle is constructed from highly durable, high-pressure G10 composite. This modern fibreglass and epoxy resin material is exceptionally lightweight, impervious to moisture and extreme temperatures, and thanks to its fine texture, provides a secure grip even in sweaty hands. The 85 mm (approx. 3.35 inches) blade is precisely crafted from proven 440 stainless steel. It is easy to maintain, offers excellent corrosion resistance, and simply needs wiping completely dry after cutting damp foods. An occasional drop of high-quality gun oil into the pivot joint will ensure smooth action for decades. The reverse side features a sturdy steel pocket clip for discreet carry on the hem of your pocket.

Crucial Safety Rules for Non-Locking Knives

The knife is supplied from the factory with a razor-sharp blade. Always bear in mind that the blade does not have a fixed mechanical lock. Applying pressure to the spine of the blade (for example, when attempting to stab into hard material) will cause it to close on your fingers. Therefore, always cut exclusively by pulling and applying pressure to the edge, never the spine. For strict safety reasons, this tool is absolutely not intended for contact fencing, martial arts training, or self-defence. To accompany this elegant knife, we highly recommend purchasing a lightweight pocket diamond or ceramic sharpener from our range to keep its fine edge in perfect condition.
