Forebear Slip Joint Knife

A contemporary knife steeped in tradition.

The Forebear is an everyday carry with a classic slip joint mechanism based on a pivotal, centuries-old design that remains popular to this day. Built to handle cutting tasks of all sizes, it features a two-blade design with larger and smaller Wharncliffe blades that open at opposite ends of the handle. Crafted from quality materials, the blades use 12C27 steel with a nail nick for easy opening and the handle is made of G10 for excellent all-weather grip. All in all, it’s a strong and lightweight folding knife with a time-honored design.
