The Finch El Camino Folding Knife in shredded carbon fiber and blackwashed steel is a clean, modern take on everyday carry with a purpose-built attitude. It blends refined materials with hardworking performance, delivering a compact folder that feels just as at home in a collection as it does in your pocket.
The handle is where this El Camino stands apart. Crafted from shredded carbon fiber, it features a layered, randomized pattern that shifts with the light, giving it depth and character without sacrificing durability. No two handles look exactly alike, adding a subtle individuality to each knife. The black stonewashed stainless steel bolsters anchor the design with a darker, worn-in look that complements the carbon fiber’s sleek edge while keeping glare to a minimum.
At the core is a 2.75-inch blade made from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, a trusted performer known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. The blackwash finish not only enhances durability but also gives the blade a broken-in appearance that hides wear from hard use. It’s a practical steel choice that won’t let you down when the work starts.
Deployment is quick and controlled thanks to the manual flipper tab paired with a smooth bearing pivot. The action is crisp without being aggressive, making it easy to get the blade into play when you need it. Once open, the button lock provides a secure hold while remaining simple and intuitive to operate. It’s a modern locking system that adds both safety and ease of use, whether you’re opening boxes or handling more demanding tasks.
With a 3.5-inch handle and a reversible wire pocket clip, the El Camino carries comfortably and discreetly. It’s lightweight enough for daily use but solid enough to inspire confidence every time you reach for it. Designed in Stilwell, Kansas, this knife reflects Finch Knife Co.’s commitment to combining traditional inspiration with forward-thinking design.
The Finch El Camino in shredded carbon fiber and blackwash isn’t just about looks—it’s built to work, built to last, and built to stand out in all the right ways.
