Crafting a workhorse.

With the Folsom we focused on designing a knife that would be at home from the city to the backcountry. Fluid arcs and simple forms give ample gripping power while the extra-slim profile won’t bulk up your pocket like other liner-locks. A triangular thumb hole and reversible clip also allow for left or right-handed configuration.

    The Folsom experience

    When I received my Folsom knife there was a functionality issue with the line lock. I own five James Brand knives and this was my first, out of the box, issue. Enter Lauren, Customer Service Representative who corrected the issue and got me a replacement in record time. The Folsom is a sturdy EDC with the VG-10 blade material that is durable, holds a sharp edge and easy to maintain. This is my favorite pocket knife over other leafing brands.

    Everyday Workhorse

    I have the Chapter and really like it but wanted a EDC I could trash a bit more with out feeling as bad about it. The Folsom is up to the task and looks even better after getting down and dirty. Nice work James.
