Overview
A burlwood handled folder with a high carbon stainless blade, solidly rated, though the listing's two length figures aren't clearly labeled.
High carbon stainless steel is chosen to balance edge retention with resistance to corrosion, a common tradeoff for a working folder. The listing carries two length-like figures, 3.5 inches and 2.3 inches, without labeling which is blade length and which is closed length, so buyers who need exact dimensions should check the product photos.
- 3.5 inch high carbon stainless blade
- Burlwood handle
Who it's for
Buyers who want a folding pocket knife with a high carbon stainless blade and a burlwood handle for everyday carry. Less suited to anyone who needs an exact confirmed blade length before ordering.
Pros and cons
- High carbon stainless blade balances edge and rust resistance
- Burlwood handle scales for grip
- Two length figures aren't clearly labeled
- Listed weight seems light for a folder
Performance notes
High carbon stainless steel gives this blade a working balance of edge retention and rust resistance, suited to a folder meant for regular use rather than display. The burlwood handle scales add grip texture over a smoother material, and at a listed weight of about 22.68 grams this sits on the lighter end for a folding knife, per the spec data provided.
