Jaco Knoetze Knives, Manual lock, Kirinite Handle, Copper Washer, Liner Lock

Description

This manual folder from Jaco Knoetze Knives is built with the kind of detail you only get from a hands-on maker — clean fitment, smooth action, and a build that feels intentional in every movement.

Designed as a modern everyday carry knife, this piece features a manual opening action running on copper washers, giving it a smooth, controlled deployment without relying on bearings. Copper washers are a favourite among collectors for their reliability, durability, and the way they develop character over time.

The knife is finished with a striking Kirinite handle, a premium acrylic-based material known for its depth, colour, and polished look. It offers a bold visual presence while still being durable enough for daily carry.

Lock-up is handled by a liner lock, delivering a proven balance of strength, simplicity, and ease of use. The result is a knife that feels refined, solid in hand, and built to be carried — not just admired.

If you’re collecting South African makers or you want something that stands apart from mass-produced production folders, this Jaco Knoetze piece delivers: custom feel, collector appeal, and functional EDC performance.
