Douk-Douk Traditional Black Folder

The French Pocket Folder

The Douk-Douk Traditional Black Folder is a plain, light working knife that fits in a pocket and takes care of everyday cutting: cord, packaging, rope, food and small camp jobs. The handle is a single piece of black-finished steel folded around the blade, and a steel bail at the butt lets you hook it to a belt or run a lanyard through it. It suits anyone who wants a slim, traditional folder that is easy to carry every day.

Features

• Folded Steel Handle — The handle is one sheet of steel bent into a channel that the blade drops into when closed, so the knife stays thin and simple.
• Black Finish — A dark finish covers the whole handle and contrasts with the bright, polished blade.
• Etched Scrollwork Blade — Both faces of the blade carry decorative scroll etching framing the DOUK-DOUK name.
• Swedged Clip Profile — The spine dips down toward a fine point, and that thinned section (the swedge) helps the tip slip into tight cuts.
• Steel Belt Bail — A curved steel loop riveted at the butt hooks over a belt or pocket edge, or takes a lanyard cord.
• Two-Rivet Construction — One rivet serves as the blade pivot and the other secures the bail, so there are few parts to loosen.
• Stamped Figure Emblem — The handle side is stamped with the brand's figure emblem, the DOUK-DOUK name and the words MODELE DEPOSE, French for a registered design.
• Made In France — The blade is marked Made in France on one face and France on the other.

Build and Carry

The knife has a steel blade and a steel handle, with no scales, liners or clip screws to work loose. Closed, the blade sits inside the folded handle and only the back edge is exposed, so it rides flat in a pocket or hangs from the bail on a belt. It is built for light, routine cutting, not prying or heavy batoning.
