Damascus Steel Folding Knife with Green Camel Bone Handle and Leather Sheath, 7.5-inch
A compact and functional folding knife, hand-forged with a distinctive 512-layer Damascus steel blade. The blade exhibits a unique 'fire' pattern, a result of layering 4340 stainless and 1075 high-carbon steels. The handle is crafted from genuine camel bone, dyed a deep green, and is finished with intricately engraved steel bolsters for a secure and comfortable grip.
The blade is hardened to 55–58 HRC, providing a balance of toughness and excellent edge retention. Its 76 mm (3-inch) length is practical for a range of cutting tasks, while the reliable folding mechanism ensures it is safe and compact for carrying. The knife is supplied with a durable leather sheath to protect the blade and handle during transport or storage.
Suitable for everyday carry (EDC), light utility work in the workshop, or as a notable addition to a knife collection.

Before you order
Age 18+ only. By placing this order you confirm you are 18 or over. The courier will request photo ID at delivery and return the parcel if no eligible adult is available.
Carrying in public. Under section 139 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988 (with equivalents in Scotland and Northern Ireland), it is an offence to have any bladed or sharply pointed article in a public place without good reason or lawful authority. Carry your purchase only when transporting it directly to and from a workplace, workshop, fieldcraft course, hunting estate, or other lawful use.
Use. This is a sharp working tool, not a weapon. Cut away from the body, keep fingers behind the edge, sheathe before storing, and keep out of reach of children.
Care. Wipe dry after every use and apply a thin film of mineral or camellia oil to prevent rust — high-carbon and Damascus steels will spot or patina if left damp.
