SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Olamic Cutlery Wayfarer 247 stands as a bold expression of American precision and uncompromising craftsmanship. Proudly made in the USA, this manual folder reflects the innovation and small-batch attention to detail that have earned Olamic a loyal following among serious knife enthusiasts.
At its core is a 3.5" harpoon blade crafted from premium M390 stainless steel. Renowned for exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, M390 is built for hard use and long-term performance. The blade’s special “frosty” finish gives it a striking, almost crystalline appearance while adding a rugged working character. A smooth blade flipper delivers fast, decisive deployment, and the sturdy framelock ensures solid, dependable lockup you can trust when it counts.
The handle scales combine Aphotic Titanium with Rocks Sculpted Titanium, creating a dramatic blend of dark, moody tones and textured machining. The sculpted pattern enhances grip while showcasing the depth and dimensionality of Olamic’s machining expertise. Despite its robust construction, the Wayfarer 247 weighs just 5 ounces and measures 4.82" closed, striking an ideal balance between pocket comfort and full-hand control. A titanium pocket clip provides secure carry, and the integrated lanyard hole adds versatility for those who prefer additional retention options.
Each knife comes complete with a certificate of authenticity and a high-quality Olamic zippered nylon storage case, underscoring its status as a precision-built American original.
