This American Blade Works slipjoint is an exclusive release built for traditional knife fans who want modern materials in a classic, lock-free pocket knife. Light, slim, and simple, it is well suited to everyday carry where a no-lock design is preferred or required.
Blade
The 2.5" modified wharncliffe blade is made from MagnaCut steel with a stonewash finish. MagnaCut is a modern powder steel prized for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, making it a standout choice in a working slipjoint. The stonewash finish helps hide handling marks while giving the blade a worn, low-glare look. The wharncliffe shape offers a straight edge with a controlled tip, ideal for precise cutting tasks.
Handle
Handles are made from brown canvas Micarta, a composite formed from linen or canvas fabric layered with resin under heat and pressure. It is durable, stable, and develops a pleasant texture with wear. At just 1.45oz, this knife carries light enough to forget it's in your pocket. The blade rides on phosphor bronze washers for smooth, consistent action.
Carry
As a slipjoint, the blade is held open by spring tension rather than a mechanical lock, opening and closing with a satisfying snap. There is no pocket clip, so the knife is meant to be carried loose in the pocket, true to traditional form.
Made in the USA.
