The Jack Wolf Midnight Jack is one of the patterns that built the brand, a modern interpretation of the coffin handle barlow that has returned across multiple production runs by popular demand. Jack Wolf Knives keeps the historical recipe intact, the tapered coffin silhouette and teardrop profile that made the pattern a nineteenth century staple, then executes it in materials the original makers could only dream about. It is also the pattern trusted to launch the brand's first fixed blade, the Midnight FIXedc, found with our Jack Wolf fixed blade knives, which says everything about its standing in the catalog.
The 2.87 inch sheepsfoot runs Crucible CPM S90V at 60-61 HRC with a hollow grind and 2.53 inches of straight cutting edge, opened by a long pull nail nick against a firm seven out of ten spring with a proper half stop. Finishes rotate by release across satin, stonewash, and DLC. See why S90V outcuts everything in its class in our guide to every major knife steel compared.
Integral 6AL/4V titanium bolsters and liners anchor scale runs spanning canvas micarta, Fat Carbon, carbon fiber, and jigged or scored full titanium builds, with bolster treatments that change by release. At 3.78 inches closed and around two and a half ounces, it wears a suit pocket as comfortably as a work jean. Our guide to knife handle materials covers how those scale choices trade off in daily carry.
The Midnight Jack is the Jack Wolf most collectors recommend first: historically grounded, endlessly wearable, and finished to the standard that earns the heirloom label. Runs return, but individual variants sell through and stay gone, so the configuration in stock is the one to move on. The full catalog lives in our Jack Wolf Knives collection.
