This is one of the world's simplest folding knives. It has a short, sharp blade in a wooden handle. And that’s it. There’s no bottle-opener or scissors or nail-file – there’s just one blade. There isn’t even a lock – you just keep it open by holding the lever in place as you use it.

​

This is my version of simple traditional folding knives like the Japanese Higonokami, and the Austrian Trattenbacher Taschenfeitel – neither of those have locks either, and millions of each have been sold. Some people are worried that the blade could close on their fingers, but you quickly get used to it and I’ve never heard of anyone having a problem with them.

 

(Also, it is illegal in many countries – including here – to carry a lockable knife with a blade more than 3” long. Just saying.)

​

I use only locally grown timbers, and I make them here using all my ancient machines to cut up the logs and turn down the handles. I heat-treat and then temper the high-carbon steel too – so I make the whole thing from start to finish.

​

Please note - this is a medium-duty knife. Designed to be useful around the home/garden/farm. You can open sacks, cut rope, trim turnip tops, peel apples and do at least 500 other important jobs with it - but don't expect it to cut down trees, or carve holes in bricks. 

 

The postage to many countries costs as much as the knife – sorry about that, but of course, that’s outside my control. And it shows what a good price these knives are : -  )   If you are interested in buying larger numbers I’d be happy to work something out.

And if your order wont go through because you’re not in countries I’ve listed, get on to me and maybe I can add yours.
