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.

    You'll want to use it everyday

    Another James Brand knife added to the collection. The Folsom knife is a great and well-built knife. Right out of the packaging, it's extremely sharp and smooth action. I'm a sucker for great packaging, design, and quality and The James Brand delivers on all 3 fronts. This knife is going to get a lot of daily use.

    Great Knife

    The knife was sharp right out of the box. I used it a few times to see how it would hold an edge, and it performed well. As an automotive technician I use a knife for many different purposes; from stripping wire, cutting carpet to removing old water hose. Therefore I need a dependable knife and one that will hold an edge. The Folsom is now my new EDC. I also like it because it’s light weight and thin. So far I’m impressed!

    Good Knife but looked worn/used

    I think that the knife itself is high quality and the blade is amazing. However, it arrived and the handle looked as though it had been worn/used. Definitely not as clean as I would have expected. I also reached out to the customer service team multiple times to see if there was anyway to exchange the silver clip with a black one (before the product shipped) and have yet to hear anything.

    Great, basic knife.

    This is an awesome knife that carries well. The Folsom has a thin profile that makes it virtually disappear in my pocket, and it came razor sharp out of the box. Additionally, the Damascus steel adds a bit of unexpected character.

    The only part of this knife that could use improvement is the clip. It seems to stick out a bit far and the edges are a bit sharp. Outside of that, this model is pretty nice. Definitely worth the purchase price.

    Fantastic knife

    Saw this knife years ago, when I first got interested in collecting. The white / black contrast is phenomenal 😍, knife size fits perfectly in my hand. The deeeep pocket clip and thin profile makes it extremely comfortable to carry! I am impressed by the quality of the knife, and how quickly it arrived after ordering!
