Folding Knives

Everything about folding knives—the EDC workhorse that balances practicality and compact carry. This tag breaks down blade shapes, lock types (liner, frame, axis, etc.), deployment methods, and material tradeoffs so you can decide what to pocket. We review top folders, test action and lockup, and cover repair, maintenance, and modification basics. From lightweight everyday folders to hard-use tactical designs, the content here helps you evaluate ergonomics, blade geometry, and carry options for both utility and defense. If you’re building an EDC kit or deciding between a compact folder and a larger utility blade, read here first.
