The Jack Wolf After Hours Jack Purple Haze is a striking blend of classic knife heritage and modern refinement, built around the timeless Coffin Barlow pattern and elevated with premium materials and precise engineering. This knife is designed for those who appreciate distinctive aesthetics paired with real-world performance, offering a piece that feels both sophisticated and purpose-driven.
Purple Haze Fat Carbon handle scales immediately set this After Hours Jack apart, displaying deep purples, blacks, and subtle metallic highlights that shift and shimmer as the light changes. Each set of scales has its own unique pattern, ensuring no two knives look exactly alike. The scales are paired with integral bolsters and a full frame constructed from 6AL/4V bead-blasted titanium, creating a unified structure that’s lightweight, corrosion resistant, and exceptionally strong. Polished titanium Torx hardware adds a clean contrast to the matte titanium finish, while the stainless lock bar insert enhances durability and helps maintain consistent lock engagement over time.
This model features a frame lock, often referred to as a bolster lock, and operates on ceramic bearings for smooth, controlled action. Deployment is handled by an ambidextrous long pull, making the knife comfortable to open for both right- and left-handed users while preserving a refined, traditional appearance. The action feels deliberate and fluid, and the lockup inspires confidence without detracting from the knife’s sleek lines.
The blade is a hollow-ground sheepsfoot crafted from Crucible S90V stainless steel, a premium choice known for excellent edge retention and impressive corrosion resistance. Finished with a clean belt satin, the 3.15-inch blade showcases crisp grind lines and a refined profile. The straight cutting edge excels at controlled slicing and everyday utility tasks, while the rounded tip enhances precision and safety. With a blade thickness of 0.12 inches, the knife offers a thoughtful balance between cutting efficiency and structural strength.
Measuring 4.16 inches closed and 7.31 inches overall, the After Hours Jack carries comfortably while providing ample blade length for practical use. Weighing just 2.8 ounces, it disappears easily into a pocket. A tip-up pocket clip is included for secure carry, and for those who prefer a cleaner, traditional look, a pocket clip recess plug is also provided, allowing for seamless clipless carry.
Presentation is equally well-considered, with tube artwork by Sean Tiffany adding an artistic touch that complements the knife’s bold yet refined character. From materials to mechanics to packaging, every detail reflects Jack Wolf Knives’ dedication to quality and design.
