Albertina Elegant Folding Knife with Engraved Bolsters and Wood Handle
Design Inspired by Hunting Classics
The dominant feature of the knife is the handle made of natural wood with a beautiful grain, which is ergonomically shaped for a comfortable grip. The wood is complemented by metal bolsters at both ends, which are decorated with fine floral engravings. This detail gives the knife a touch of luxury and history. The blade features a specific clip-point shape with a distinct swedge on the spine (false edge) and a longitudinal groove (fuller), lending the knife a fierce yet elegant appearance. The rear part of the handle includes a practical hole for threading a lanyard or leather thong.
Materials and Safety
The 85 mm long blade is made of high-quality 420 stainless steel (marked as 420 Rostfrei). This steel is prized for its high corrosion resistance and toughness. Its main advantage is ease of sharpening—you can restore the edge in moments, even in field conditions. Your safety during work is ensured by the proven Backlock mechanism. It firmly locks the blade and prevents accidental closure onto your fingers. The lock is released by pressing the lever on the spine of the handle.

Historical Context
Decorated folding knives of this type were historically popular, especially among the upper social classes and hunters. The engravings on the fittings often depicted hunting scenes or floral motifs, intended to demonstrate the owner's relationship with nature. The Albertina knife follows this tradition of "Sunday knives," which were not carried for rough work but as part of formal attire or for festive hunts.
Knife Care
To keep this elegant piece looking like new for years, follow a few principles:
- Wood: The natural wood on the handle "breathes". Never wash the knife in a dishwasher or leave it soaking in water. Occasionally treat the wood with linseed oil or beeswax.
- Mechanism: Apply a drop of oil to the pivot and lock mechanism once in a while for smooth operation.
- Blade: After cutting acidic foods (fruit, onions), rinse the blade and wipe it dry.
A leather belt pouch would be a perfect match for this knife, underscoring its classic style and protecting the decorated fittings from scratches.
