As folding knives have evolved over the last few decades, the classic non-locking slip-joint has largely gotten lost in the shuffle. The James Brand, however, is here to right that wrong with The Pike, an heirloom-quality non-locking knife that marries timeless design with modern, high-end materials to deliver beautifully-crafted non-locking folder that can proudly be passed down to future generations. Weighing in at 2.2oz, The Pike features a 2.3” Wharncliffe straight blade with a nail-nick opening that’s made from top-shelf Sandvik 12C27 steel and is mated to 3.4” stainless steel handles with black Micarta scales. Measuring 5.7” when open, The Pike also sports phosphor bronze washers and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
