This non-locking slipjoint pocketknife is a refined tool designed for everyday carry and appreciation, offering a classic aesthetic that seamlessly fits into both traditional collections and the demands of contemporary life. Its thoughtful construction and premium components ensure it's not just a beautiful object, but a highly functional cutting instrument.

    KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

    • Secure Non-Locking System: The double-detent mechanism provides a confident and secure hold for the blade in both open and closed positions, offering peace of mind during use and carry.
    • Exceptional Cutting Performance: The CPM 154 blade steel, combined with a full flat grind, ensures the knife maintains a very sharp edge and slices through materials with remarkable ease.
    • Comfortable and Characterful Grip: The green canvas Micarta handle feels satisfying in the hand and becomes even more unique and comfortable over time as it develops a distinct patina.
    • Portable and Pocket-Friendly: Its compact closed length and lightweight design make it an ideal choice for everyday carry without being cumbersome.

    HOW TO USE:

    • Opening the Blade: Locate the nail nick on the blade. Using your thumbnail or fingertip, carefully pull the blade outwards from the handle. The blade will stop at a half-open position before you continue to fully open it until the double-detent mechanism engages, securing it in the open position.
    • Making Cuts: Grip the Micarta handle firmly. Position the clip point blade against the material you wish to cut. Use steady, controlled pressure to perform your task. The full flat grind of the blade assists in smooth cutting.
    • Closing the Blade: To close, gently apply inward pressure to the blade using your thumb or fingers. The blade will disengage from the open detent and move through the half-stop, allowing you to guide it safely back into the handle until the closed detent engages. Ensure your fingers are clear of the blade's path.
    • Carrying: Utilize the integrated lanyard hole if you wish to attach a lanyard for easier retrieval from a pocket or for securing it. As it does not have a pocket clip, it's designed to ride freely in a pocket or pouch.
    • Maintenance: Keep the blade clean and dry after use. Periodically apply a light film of knife oil to the blade and pivot area to ensure smooth operation and prevent corrosion. Sharpen the CPM 154 blade as needed to maintain its cutting performance.
