[Higo x Duncans] Brass Forged Folder

Meet the Brass Forged Folder —a spirited homage to the timeless Higo design, reimagined with a fresh twist that’s as affordable as it is captivating. This knife is a tactile delight, blending rugged charm with pocket-friendly finesse. Where tradition meets innovation, we’ve swapped the conventional carbon steel for a gleaming stainless steel blade, shrugging off rust while keeping that classic edge sharp and ready.

The brass handle gleams with a warm, golden hue, its surface etched with the iconic debossed kanji letters—a nod to the Higo’s Japanese roots. It’s a grip that feels alive in your hand, weighty yet balanced, whispering tales of blacksmiths past. Flick it open with the Chikiri lever, a simple, satisfying nub that channels the spirit of the original friction folders—no locks, no fuss, just the pure, honest resistance of steel on brass holding it steady. A lanyard hole punctuates the design, inviting a cord for easy carry, whether slung from a belt or tucked in a pocket.

This little marvel doesn’t arrive alone—it’s cradled in one of Duncans’ rugged Hard Cases, a fortress for your folder that promises protection with a touch of tactical essence. The Brass Forged Folder is a great companion—functional, striking, and built to spark conversation wherever it goes.
