The Griffin X Series 1946 Slipjoint Folding Knife from Griffin Co. blends traditional pocketknife character with modern materials and meticulous craftsmanship. Designed for everyday reliability while maintaining the charm of a classic slipjoint, this knife delivers premium performance in a refined and compact package.
The blade measures 2.79” and is crafted from high-performance S90V stainless steel, a premium steel widely respected for its exceptional edge retention and impressive wear resistance. Finished with a hand rubbed satin grind, the blade displays a refined, clean appearance that highlights the craftsmanship behind its construction. The drop point profile provides excellent versatility with a strong tip and plenty of cutting edge, making it well suited for a wide variety of everyday tasks. A traditional nail nick allows for smooth manual opening in true slipjoint fashion.
The Griffin X Series 1946 uses a classic slipjoint mechanism that provides the familiar walk-and-talk action many knife enthusiasts appreciate. Ceramic bearings contribute to an exceptionally smooth opening and closing motion while maintaining the straightforward reliability of a non-locking design.
The handle is constructed from light stonewash titanium, offering an outstanding balance of durability, corrosion resistance, and lightweight strength. The stonewashed finish gives the knife a rugged working character while helping disguise the signs of daily carry.
Set into the titanium frame is a stonewash brass inlay that adds both visual contrast and timeless appeal. The brass brings warmth and depth to the handle while maintaining excellent durability. With continued use, the brass will develop a natural patina that enhances the knife’s character and individuality over time.
Titanium hardware and a titanium pocket clip complete the build, ensuring long-lasting strength while maintaining a cohesive premium design. Measuring 3.71” closed and weighing 3.4 ounces, the knife rides comfortably in the pocket while delivering dependable cutting performance whenever it’s needed.
