Jack Wolf Knives Stockman - Root Beer Kirinite - Satin 14C28N Blade

Jack Wolf Knives Stockman Single Blade Traditional Slipjoint

The Jack Wolf Knives Stockman brings one of the most beloved patterns in traditional cutlery to the Gateway Series. Jack Wolf Knives made its name on premium integral slipjoints built to founder Ben Belkin's exacting standards, and the Gateway Series carries that same design language into a knife meant to ride in your pocket every day rather than sit in a collection case. Rather than the classic three blade configuration, this is a modern single blade take on the stockman, keeping the pattern's iconic serpentine handle and its hardest working blade while trimming the weight and thickness of the traditional setup. It is also the largest Gateway model to date.

Blade

The 3.13" clip point is the blade the stockman pattern built its reputation on, ready for general cutting, food prep, and fine tip work. It is flat ground from Sandvik 14C28N, a fine-grained Swedish stainless that balances edge retention, corrosion resistance, and easy sharpening better than almost anything in its class. Hardened to 58-59 HRC, it takes a keen edge on a strop or stone in minutes. Read more in our guide to every major knife steel compared.

Slipjoint Mechanism

True to the pattern's roots, the Stockman is a non-locking slipjoint. A stainless backspring delivers a firm pull with a crisp half stop and snaps the blade home with the satisfying walk and talk Jack Wolf is known for. It opens with a traditional nail nick, the way pocket knives have worked for well over a century.

Handle

Root Beer Kirinite scales give the knife a warm, translucent amber depth that shifts in the light. Integral satin stainless steel bolsters and liners anchor the construction, finished with nickel silver pins and Jack Wolf's bullock shield.

Carry

At 3.99" closed, 0.44" thick, and 3.0 oz, the single blade build carries slimmer and lighter than any three blade stockman, clipless in a pocket or slip case the way a traditional should. See the full lineup of Jack Wolf Knives or browse all folding knives.
