Now with Elmax steel!
This folding knife is a bit special – it combines modern steel technology with a hundred year old, folding knife design. Mod. U1 lacks a blade lock. This means that, in many countries, it will most likely be considered as a pocket knife, and therefore be allowed to be carried in many public places, depending on local laws. The blade is instead held in place with an springsteel key, a technique which has been in use for more than 100 years and which ensures that the blade does not fold. The blade is made of the Swedish Elmax powder steel, and this guarantees edge retention beyond the ordinary. The handle is made from stainless liners with the sides in the beautiful desert ironwood. With nail-nicks in both sides of the blade back, the knife is completely symmetrical and is as easily handled by both left-handed and right-handed users.
The U1 comes with a slimfit black cordura sheath. Extra or replacement sheaths for belt carry (product code FK-Pec) to fit this model can be found here.
Please note- There can be some variation in pattern and shades on the wooden handles. Each one is unique.
