Rite Edge Single Bolster Lockback Pocket Knife

Description

The Rite Edge Single Bolster Lockback closes down to 4 inches overall, a stainless clip point blade set in a brown handle combining bone and wood, shipped complete with a leather belt sheath.

Pairing bone and wood in one handle is less common than a single-material build, and it gives this knife a two-tone look with noticeable variation running through the grip rather than one uniform surface. The exact mix of grain and texture will differ slightly from one knife to the next, since both materials vary naturally on their own. A single bolster at the pivot end keeps the metalwork simple compared to knives with bolsters at both ends, which also trims a bit of weight from the finished piece and puts more visual focus on the handle material itself. A lockback secures the blade open with a spine-mounted release, one of the more trusted traditional locking styles for how much force it takes to disengage by accident rather than a simple slip joint that relies on spring tension alone.

The included leather sheath is worth noting, since most traditional folders this size rely on a pocket rather than a belt sheath; it gives buyers the option to carry this one openly on a belt rather than tucked away in a pocket. Made in Pakistan.
