The SwitchBack is a gentleman’s pocket knife made from brass and nitro-v blade steel.
It is a unique take on the traditional friction folder design. We have designed small leaf springs that are cut into the blade at the pivot, ride on a pin, and give you a secure open and closed feel.

Made to be a piece that is handed down generation after generation.

Comes in Air/Water tight box with COA coin. Each knife is numbered and serialized.

Choice of scale material. Current choices: textured brass, textured copper, cocobolo, black canvas Micarta, green canvas Micarta, orange G-10, and black weave carbon fiber.

Orders ship from our shop in Arlington, WA, within 2 business days. We ship with a mix of carriers, and we ship internationally.

Returns are accepted within 30 days for unused items.
