Gentleman's Lockback | Timber Wolf – automatic folding knife with clippoint blade

The Gentleman's Lockback is an automatic folding knife featuring a 3Cr13 stainless steel blade with chrome finish. This gentlemen's knife combines a clippoint blade shape with wooden handle inlays and an automatic (switchblade) opening mechanism for single-handed deployment.

Construction and materials

The knife features an 8.25cm blade length with plain-edge grind, crafted from 3Cr13 stainless steel. Total length when open measures 19.05cm, folding down to 10.8cm for pocket carry. The handle incorporates wooden inlays with nickel silver bolsters featuring scroll engravings, providing both aesthetic appeal and functional grip.

Application and use

Designed for everyday carry (EDC) applications, this gentlemen's knife handles routine cutting tasks in office or domestic environments. The clippoint blade geometry excels at detailed work and general utility cutting. The automatic deployment mechanism enables rapid one-handed opening, though users should verify local regulations regarding automatic knives.

Integration and compatibility

The knife employs a liner lock mechanism to secure the blade during use. The automatic opening system operates via push-button activation, releasing the blade instantly. The folded length of 10.8cm fits standard pocket dimensions while maintaining sufficient blade length for practical tasks.

Maintenance and lifecycle

The 3Cr13 steel offers basic corrosion resistance but benefits from regular cleaning and light oiling. Wipe the blade after use and apply occasional wood conditioner to preserve the handle inlays. The chrome blade finish provides additional protection against environmental exposure during normal use.
