FAQs

What is the blade length of this knife?

Does it come with a sheath?

This model does not typically come with a sheath. It is designed as a folding pocket knife.

Can the wire stripper be used on all types of wire?

The wire stripper is designed for common electrical wire gauges. Performance may vary on specialized or very thick/thin wires.

How should I clean the wooden handle?

Wipe the handle with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and consider occasional treatment with wood oil.

Is the blade replaceable?

No, the blade is fixed and not designed to be replaced.

Is the folding mechanism secure?

The folding design is intended for safety during transport. Always ensure the blade is fully opened or closed and locked before use.

Troubleshooting

Blade is stiff or difficult to open/close

Check the pivot area for debris. Clean with a brush and lubricate sparingly with a light oil if necessary.

Wire stripper not cutting cleanly

Ensure the wire is positioned correctly within the stripper notch. Check the blade edge for any nicks or dullness. Clean any debris from the stripping slot.

Wood handle shows signs of drying or cracking

Apply a small amount of food-grade mineral oil or wood conditioner to the handle and wipe off any excess. Repeat as needed to maintain moisture.
