Douk-Douk Squirrel Folder

Douk-Douk Squirrel Knife

The Douk-Douk Squirrel Folder is a slim, plain pocket knife for everyday cutting: opening boxes, slicing cord, trimming rope or cutting food at camp. It has a single blade and a folded steel handle with no clip, scales or extra parts to snag. It suits anyone who wants a light, flat knife that rides in a pocket or hangs from a cord.

Features

• Folded Steel Handle — The handle is a single sheet of bright silver-finish steel folded around the blade, which keeps the knife thin and hard-wearing.
• Embossed Squirrel Motif — A squirrel is pressed into the handle face, the emblem that gives this model its name.
• L'Ecureuil Stamping — The handle is stamped "L'Ecureuil" (French for squirrel) and "Modele Depose," meaning registered design.
• Single Plain-Edge Blade — One straight-edged blade with a gently curved belly and a fine point handles general cutting and detail work.
• Nail Nick Opening — A groove cut into the blade gives your thumbnail a place to catch and swing it open.
• Spine-Mounted Spring — A steel spring runs along the back of the handle and holds the blade under tension when it is open or closed.
• Lanyard Bail — A ring at the butt of the handle takes a cord or lanyard so you can hang the knife from a belt loop, pack or neck cord.
• Riveted Pivot — The blade turns on a simple rivet pivot with no screws to work loose or adjust.

Build And Carry

The Squirrel is built from very few parts: a stamped steel handle, a blade, a spring along the spine and a pivot rivet. That simplicity keeps it light and flat enough to sit in a shirt or trouser pocket without much bulk. The blade is held by spring tension and does not lock, so use it for push and draw cuts rather than heavy prying.
