The Fallkniven U1 Desert Ironwood folding knife is a bit special – it combines modern steel technology with a hundred year old, folding knife design.
The Fallkniven Mod. U1 has no blade lock and has a cutting edge less than 7.6cm long meaning that it is legal to carry in the UK at the owner's discretion.
The blade is instead held in place with a springsteel key, a technique which has been in use for more than 100 years and which ensures that the blade does not fold back onto your fingers. The blade is made of Swedish Elmax powder steel, and this guarantees extra-ordinary edge retention.
The handle is made up with stainless liners and stunning Desert Ironwood scales. With nail-nicks in both sides of the blade back, the knife is completely symmetrical and is as easily handled by both left- and right-handed users.
