Designed to be the perfect pocket knife, the James Brand and Uncrate collaborative Folsom Knife takes the classic frame one step further with a wooden handle and a black PVD-coated blade.
By using real Ebony wood instead of staining the wooden grip, the brand has given the knife the darkest hue possible -- a stylish and classic look. The natural density of the wood gives the Folsom proper balance, connected to the Carpenter stainless steel blade that was created to last without needing to be sharpened for years. The slim profile, 3.4 ounce weight and small lock makes it ideal for slipping easily into any pocket.
The new Folsom Knife by James brand and Uncrate sits at only 4 inches with closed, for convenience and style.
