Jackknives & Pocket Knives
There are many different folding knives on the market today, and each is adapted to different users and applications. Here are some simple tips on what to look for so you can find a folding knife that suits you. At Outnorth, we sell knives from brands such as Gerber, EKA, Leatherman, and Urberg.
The Folding Knife's Blade
As you can understand, the blade is the heart and soul of the folding knife. The most important aspect of the blade is its sharpness. A dull folding knife is quite useless. The high-quality pocket knives use high-quality steel. The steel will determine qualities such as toughness, tensile strength, hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and edge retention. If you want to read a little about how to keep the knife sharp, there is a short guide directly under Knives in the menu.
The Folding Knife's Handle
The handle of the folding knife should be durable, flexible, and should not absorb moisture. Remember, you can use the highest quality materials in the world and still have a poor knife if the knife is poorly designed and the ergonomics are completely off. Ergonomics refers to how comfortable the knife feels in your hand. A good design can create something that feels like an extension of your hand.
