Handmade Damascus Pocket Knives for Everyday Carry
A Damascus pocket knife is the easiest way to carry hand-forged steel every day. Each folding knife here is made by our own smiths in Wazirabad, Pakistan, and shipped from our fulfillment center in Texas. The layered pattern is different on every blade, so the knife you receive is one of a kind.
How our folding knives lock
Our folders lock open with either a lockback, which releases with a press on the spine, or a liner lock, which you push aside with your thumb to close. All of them open by hand, with no springs or assisted opening.
Steel and handle options
- Copper Damascus: copper in the steel warms the pattern toward reds and golds.
- Wood, bone and horn: natural materials, so the grain and color vary from knife to knife.
- Pearl stone and resin: bold colors, including our red, white and blue American Flag handle.
- Stainless steel: our wood and bone stainless folders are an easy-care everyday option.
Make it personal
Many of our pocket knives can be engraved with a name, initials or a date, on one or both sides of the blade, and some on the leather pouch too. See every engravable knife in Engraved & Personalized.
Most folders come with a leather sheath or pouch, and several ship in a presentation box. Shipping is free on all US orders, and most orders arrive in 3–5 business days.
Damascus Pocket Knife FAQ
What size are your pocket knives?
Most measure about 6.5 to 7 inches when open, with blades around 3 to 3.5 inches, a comfortable size for daily carry.
Is Damascus steel good for a pocket knife?
Yes. It takes a keen edge, and the pattern makes every knife unique. Wipe the blade dry after use and add a drop of oil to the blade and pivot now and then. Our knife care guide covers the rest.
Can I carry a pocket knife anywhere?
Knife laws differ by state and city, so please check your local rules before you carry. You must be 18 or older to order.
