Genstlemans' knives. Gentlemen's suits. I remember way back last century when I was given a coat and tie so that I could be seated in a restaurant. They didn't fit. I didn't recognize tham until they started to talk.

@@johnc4774 I don't agree with Mr loveless myself either. But....from a practical point of view pearl and bone unless resin stabilized has a tendency to crack @ the pin rivets over time. I think pearl or New Zealand paui shell looks awesome. Same with mammoth tusk ivory or many other bone handles. But be aware that their natural beauty comes at a high price regarding long term durability.

A gentleman's knife, to me, should be one that if you had to use in a social setting will not cause alarm to those around you. Tacticool of any kind are not gentlemen knives. Luckily knives come in all shapes and sizes and it's okay to own as many as you want for whatever circumstances you find yourself in.

I wear a suit almost daily, I won't use pocket clips with my slacks anymore. The thing you guys neglect to mention is how fast those clips wear out the less durable materials slacks are made of. This makes my needs for a "gentleman's knife" somewhat unique. It has to be slim, but it also needs to be small so that it isn't heavy at the bottom of my pocket.
@morganw02
@morganw02 6 жыл бұрын
About a year ago I had to decide on a knife to wear with a suit and slacks. I decided on the Gerber 39 series. I needed something without a pocket clip, because no matter how suave it looks, the pocket clip detracts from the professional appearance. The same with something that is 2 hand opening, so I don't attract unneeded attention while deploying the blade. And finally, the lock-back design is a timeless classic, exactly what a gentleman should have.

I've been carrying my Boker Urban Trapper for over a year now and I wear dress slacks every day for work. I used to carry much bulkier heavier knives and this was my first dive into something more slim and gentlemanly. Definitely love it! I convinced my dad to get one as well. It opens so smooth, and no one is scared of surprised by it, but its still fully functional.

Sleek, small, smooth and polished, wood or other classic scales are an easy pick. Modern/cool stuff might work but probably not with the wrong execution. The clip if it has one needs to be simple or smooth looking, attractive but not distracting. When in doubt, look at pens for reference or even match.

Watching this 5 years later. I never really wore a suit back then, but these days, I'm wearing slacks/suits daily for work (I'm a men's wear consultant and Sunday-school teacher/youth leader). I typically carry my Microtech UTX-85 because of the slim profile, or my Benchmade mini-bugout. The straight pockets are painful to use, and sometimes even the slimmest knives bulge or wear my slacks out.

I've carried the Boker Urban Trapper for years now - I wear everything from tactical pants, jeans to suits, etc. The low profile clip makes it perfect for low concealment, not wearing out my pockets and great for getting to when needed. The price has come now over the years, but its still somewhat pricy - still I've purchased and tried out lesser priced, but similar styled knives - only to find out that they are not low profile, but are really thick handled, bulky and heavy. The Boker comes with a tool to tighten the handles or change them out if you want to change handles. The blade holds its edge really really well. Overall I have to give it a solid A-. I'm currently looking at the knives by deejo.com - around the same price, but with a lot more customization. Of course, back in my airborne days I carried a variety of different work blades, but you carry what the environment you are in demands.

Another good gentlemanly folder is the Laguiole, speaking of class I trust the French. These knife came in many varieties, a good French Laguiole will offer you 12c27 with a nicely polish wood handle with patterned back spring at a very reasonable cost. If you want to go fancier I've seen a 14c28 steel Laguiole with a mammoth bone handle with a hand file pattern back spring. Laguiole style knife came in many different size but they are always long and slim, some even came with a cork screw, add a leather slip sheath to that and voila' you got a nice gentle manly folder fit for a tux and a state dinner.

Accoutrements is a totally legit word... it probably is french in origin... or at least sounds cool with a french accent. ac·cou·tre·ment /əˈko͞odərmənt,əˈko͞otrəmənt/ noun plural noun: accoutrements additional items of dress or equipment, or other items carried or worn by a person or used for a particular activity. "the accoutrements of religious ritual"

ZT0450cf, better looking than any knife on that table. I have a CA legal Protech halfbreed in black/CF if I need something a little smaller.

Gotta disagree. Like the M16, the 0450 is easily carried but it would look out of place at a black tie event. The lines on it are too aggressive, too "murdery".

@subiesaurusrex 6 жыл бұрын
Alexandre Aubrey I think the 0450CF is small enough to not look to scary. I get what you mean though. But a bunch in this lineup could look out of place, the Newport looks clean but the “switchblade” would draw some looks. The urban trapper is a little bigger than I would look for a classy knife too. I think all of these knives fit the profile of gentlemanly it just depends on personal preferences.

My vote goes to the factory bronze 0808 (0808GLD I think?) I threw some bronze hardware from MXG Gear on mine as well as the lanyard from a Spyderco PPT and now it’s classy af.

Okay im going to be that guy... I purchased a CKRT M16 Folding knife from my local sporting goods store when I was about 15 years old. For years I carried it every day no matter what I was wearing or how formal my attire was. I think it is one of the most functional and good looking options at the price point, and with the double lock, I never feel uneasy about it failing or malfunctioning. I would probably take his M16 out of any of the choices you mentioned in the video, but thats just me.

A Spyderco delica 4 with a stainless steel handle is a great gentlemany knife: Small, great steel, and doesn't look agressive. I also go with a real french-made Laguiole: Beautiful, very traditional.

I'm not going to wear a knife on a clip with my suit. I have a couple of Benchmade carbon fiber/titanium knives with blades less than 3" that are very thin and light. I removed the clips and carry them in my suit pocket. They are unobtrusive and perfect for the task.

When it comes to Gentlemen knives, Laguiole is my go-to, preferably a custom made (with alot of choices of material for the handle), or the model l'éclair 440 is always a good classic. Make sure to order it from the smiths themselves to avoid the counterfeit.
