Naturally, folding knives are not quite as strong as sheath knives, and are more expensive to manufacture since they contain several moving parts. Nevertheless, many prefer a folding knife, mostly because of the handy format and its considerably more discreet qualities, especially attractive in an urban environment. FH9 is in fact a folding knife for hunting, but we think that more user categories will like its slim design and natural function. The blade is locked using a distinct front lock and the rigid clip clasps the knife to the pocket lining.
OK - we admit that this mother-of-pearl handled beauty isnât the classic paint tin opener. Nevertheless, we hope that those who invest in this most beautiful folding knife will treat themselves to the luxury of using it day-to-day, because it is a utility knife, albeit an exclusive one. The blade in stainless laminate powder steel keeps an edge well, and the whole knife feels robust and well-made. The thrill of the exceptionally lovely mother-of-pearl mosaic will be difficult to get over!
