The Carter

I had been looking at TJB for a little while so I finally pulled the trigger and bought one and to be quite honest I'm more of a auto knife kinda guy, however I have never been more impressed with a flipper great steel in it and the action is super smooth g10 scales are very comfortable the knife carries exceptionally well and let's just talk about the box for a sec I have quite a few microtechs benchmades spydercos and other high end knives and I must say TJB box blows all the other out of the water so we'll done James brand my carter xl will not be the last knife I purchase for yall

I am a collector of both pocketknives and Carryology Collaboration items.

This is one of the top three Carryology items I have.

First, the knife. James Brand takes a classic pocketknife and turns it up with finish, materials, and ergonomics. Slide lock, flip disk, well-designed deep pocket clip: it is the epitome of an EDC pocketknife. The Carter is a knife that punches far above its weight in terms of cost. And then we do the Carryology voodoo to it.

The auxikko pattern on the handle, perfectly engraved into the scales, not only massively enhances the grip but is a classical Japanese element that makes this piece stand out. As this pattern is found on most of the Carryology collaboration pieces, it lends the knife a bespoke quality. The superb matte black finish, offset by the orange anodized thumb disk, is the chef's kiss on this incredible piece.

I almost don’t want to carry it daily, but when you have a bag, water bottle, wallet, and pen with the same design elements and patterning, you cannot help but want to take that next step in accessorizing.

Wrote a review for the xl Carter 2 years ago and just figured I’d update! I had both the brown and black micarta and then got the xl green micarta later because I loved the first so much. Well, the ex wife now has the brown and black beauty plus several of my other James items unfortunately. However the green bastard from parts unknown is still kicking and still just as awesome as the day I got it! I seriously love this knife, it’s been two years and I honestly believe this will be around for the rest of my life! Just went camping last weekend for Mother’s Day and every knife she brought was in absolutely terrible shape. This guys saved the friggin day again! Was cutting up steak before grilling for French dip and this guy just went through like a hot knife through butter! Usually don’t use for food prep but when in a pinch what can you do! I am glad I had some James with me! I seriously love this brand, the very instant I can I am going to replace all my missing items! Mark my words lol! Thank you guys for everything you do!
