The Rat-1 is made with a full flat grind, AUS-8 blade steel fine edge cutting end that measures 3.5″ in length and is mated to a simple, yet ergonomic, black nylon handle. The Ontario Knife Company has been making fixed blades, cutlery and tools with the same focus on robust quality and classical design since the late 1800s, which is only part of the reason why we have no problem recommending the Ontario Knife ON8848-BRK Rat-1. It’s simple, sleek, stylish and built for everything from opening boxes to cutting loose threads. Easy-to-use, signature Carson Flipper extension for one-hand opening. We’d be happy to carry any CRKT knife as part of our everyday carry, but we’ve found the CRKT M16 Folding Spear Point Straight Edge Knife to be one of the most essential pieces of kit we tote regularly. There are few pocket knife brands as well known as Columbia River Knife & Tool-aka CRKT-so it should come as no surprise that at least one of their knives is on this list. $18ĬRKT M16 Folding Spear Point Straight Edge Knife Even better, this option from Amazon includes a high quality leather sheath produced in France by Bertrand de Lussac for easy carrying and storage. Made in France, like it’s been since Joseph Opinel started making knives in the late 1800s, the Opinel No.8 Pocket Knife has an iconic, award-winning and beautiful form that’s as functional as it is pleasing to the eye. The Opinel No.8 Carbon Pocket Knife is reminiscent of the historically classic pocket knives like the “ peasant knife” or “penny knife” that’s been almost continually produced since it was originally invented hundreds and hundreds of years ago. Combine all those aspects and you get a knife that’s small, versatile and made from materials that last-despite the fact you can carry it on your keys, stash it in your pocket or wear it around your neck. That led them to add a hole in the butt for a lanyard/keychain and a large hole in the blade that functions as an opening device while also significantly reducing weight. When it came to building a great mini-knife, the team at SOG opted for an overall redesign as opposed to creating a small, cheap knife reminiscent of what you’d expect to find on the counter at your local gas station.

With an overall weight of 1.3 oz and a 2.1″ straight edge stainless steel blade, the SOG Centi II Folding Knife is almost the definition of what we’d expect to find under “easy to carry knife” in the dictionary. This is a knife that you can take anywhere. The Gerber Paraframe Collection includes a total of eight different knives in varying sizes that are available in different finishes or with fine/serrated edge blades, but if we had to pick one favorite in the entire line it would be the Gerber Paraframe Mini Pocket Knife you see here because of its simple frame lock design, diminutive size and lightweight construction. If you’re familiar with the brand at all, you’ve probably seen, owned or thought about picking up a Gerber Paraframe Knife because it is, quite literally, available everywhere. Gerber is a name that needs no introduction around these parts. The bad news is that you’re going to want all of these knives. The good news is that there are plenty of folding pocket knife options available on Amazon right now, regardless of your budget. Do you want a serrated or straight blade? Do you want full stainless construction or a composite combination? What about the style? All of these things depend on how much you want to spend and your personal preferences.
