The History Behind This Damascus Lockback Folding Knife 

Lockback folders trace back to knives built for safe, daily carry. Rasp steel came from repurposed file steel valued for its toothed texture. Resin handles grew popular for bold color and lasting durability. JW SteelCrafts builds each handmade rasp steel lockback for USA buyers by hand.

Blade Performance

Rasp steel holds a working edge well through daily cutting tasks. The wide clip blade favors control during general use. This shape works well for everyday cutting close to the body.

Regular care keeps the lockback action smooth for years.
