Damascus Pocket Knives
Hand-forged Damascus pocket knives — folding EDC knives with real pattern-welded blades.
A Damascus pocket knife puts forged, layered steel in a folder you can carry every day. Each blade is pattern-welded from multiple steels, then etched so the flowing grain shows on the surface, which means no two knives look exactly alike.
This collection gathers liner-lock, back-lock and slipjoint Damascus folders from independent makers, with handles in bone, stag, buffalo horn, pakkawood, olive wood, resin and engraved brass. You'll also find matched pocket knife sets for collectors and gift-giving.

Damascus Pocket Knife FAQ
Are Damascus pocket knives good for everyday carry?
Yes. A well-made Damascus folder takes a keen edge and is easy to touch up, and a compact 3-inch blade fits most EDC needs.
How do I care for a Damascus pocket knife?
Wipe the blade dry after use, keep a light coat of oil on it and avoid storing it wet in a leather pouch. Our Damascus knife care guide covers the details.
