Founded in 1902, Cognet, the cutlers from Thiers, France, manufacture
knives that are especially popular and widely used in Africa, and have
remained virtually unchanged for almost 100 years. The Douk-Douk has a
simple, easy-to-repair design, is very comfortable to wear thanks to the
extremely slim design. Representing years of tradition, it is a special piece
for both collectors and users. The characteristic decorative elements on the
blade and handle create a special aura. The slim and lightweight design
make the Douk Douk a perfect companion, with a blade of non-stainless
C75 carbon steel.


The blade measures under three inches and is non-locking and is therefore
friendly carry within the UK at the owners discretion.

    Douk - Douk. Who’s there?

    Posted by Stevo on 23rd Jan 2024

    Arrived with a decent edge, easily and quickly optimised with stropping. The design is nice and slim, the blade makes the most of allowable EDC dimensions, and the pocket weight is minimal. As to the simplified build, the other reviews are informative; you have a pretty good idea of what you are getting. The backspring on this one is just right, medium firm. It is actually possible to open my Douk Douk Petite with one hand with a bit of practice. Not rapidly, but it is doable. Another reviewer recommended a Fallkniven pouch, and it fits well, protecting both pocket and pocket knife. For a collector, this is an interesting addition. As a daily user, for the normal day to day tasks (but never for prying), this trim folder is ideal. It does well as an impromptu feast dagger, too. I’m very pleased with this purchase, and would happily recommend. Another HH success story!

    Douk douk small.

    Posted by Michael Howson on 8th Mar 2023

    Always been curious about these knives, so I bought one. Next day delivery, great service HH. Well, it is small and very slim and it fits nicely in my wallet. Good strong back spring, sharp blade OTB. It is rather roughly made, almost crude you could say. But there is something about it I like. I would not want to pay any more for it. In fact the larger ones are very overpriced for what they are, IMO. You can get a much better knife a lot cheaper than this, but if you are a collector you should consider one.

    Douk Douk petite.

    Posted by Daniel Calderwood on 12th Aug 2021

    Edge rather rough as received, but greatly improved by a couple of minutes work with a chef's steel.

    A notorious classic.

    Posted by Felly Da! on 27th Apr 2021

    Rites of passage knife for the budding traditional enthusiast. Opinel, Svord, Higonakami, Victorinox, Mercartor etc. I like all of the above ... The douk-douk is not disimilar to the Mercartor - it's a bit smaller than the UK legal mercartor. I like this knife more than i thought i would- good sharpness from the factory. In this age of super steels It's still got plenty of utility to offer, nice and slicey Fruit, letters with ease. Fit and finish were excellent on mine - A thin knife it is surprisingly comfortable to use for smaller bursts of time and sittable tasks - that strong back spring makes it feel (within reason) safe to use. If you want one as a user or a collection piece - worth it imo. Long live the douk-douk! Thank you.

    Knife is very stiff to close and the handle and blade design had a few imperfections

    love love love it, so much character! no hesitation at all in recommending this little slice of history. the action is solid enough on mine that i feel perfectly safe using the loop with a neck chain, makes it just about the perfect neck knife as it's legal carry (though the blade shape may turn heads), low profile, and weighs next to nothing.

    Fab little folder

    Excellent

    Posted by Brian on 2nd Jul 2019

    After having the full sized Douk Douk I was so impressed, I ordered the petite knife. Again not disappointed. I ordered a Fallkniven FH9 pouch as well and the petite fits perfectly. Keeps the knife fluff free and pockets don't wear. Once again HH service was outstanding. Ordered on Monday afternoon 1st July and they arrived Tuesday morning 2nd July.
