A.G. Russell Knives

The CRKT fixed-blade Razel™ series designed by Jon and Josh Graham of Graham Knives in Cleveland, Tennessee, has captured the attention of every craftsman who has seen them. But many suggested that folding versions be made, so they could whip out the knife for a task, open it with one hand, make the cut, close it with one hand, and clip it back into their pocket or work apron without looking down for a sheath.

The Stubby Folding Razel™ is a short little frame lock with straight cutting edges of 2" and 0.923" of 8CR13MoV at 58-59 Rc. The blade is easily opened with either hand, thanks to dual knurled thumb studs. The hand-contoured ram horn scales swell to fit securely in your palm. Three stainless steel back spacers yield an easily cleaned open build. This is the perfect tool to use for any precision cutting task, such as shaving just a few thousandths of an inch from a woodworking cut, or cleaning up the inside corners of a mortise. And it is strong enough with hefty liners, a 0.13" thick blade, a deep finger choil and ample thumb friction grooves, to handle any rough cutting job, too. A removable stainless steel clip is included. Measures 3-1/4" closed and weighs 4.4 oz. Suggested retail $49.99.
