We Have Great Eastern Knives For Sale

Great Eastern Cutlery is a knife manufacturer dedicated to preserving the classic pocket knife. They use timeless design elements to create beautiful pocket knives. These slip joint folding knives share designs that have been used for hundreds of years. If you are looking for a knife to add a little extra style to your everyday carry, it’s time to check out our Great Eastern knives for sale.

Great Eastern Cutlery started making knives in 2006. Based out of Titusville, PA, their shop has been specializing in reviving this classic style of knife making since day one. By combining old fashioned designs with modern manufacturing techniques, they have managed to become one of the top producers of classic pocket knives in the country.

The basic form of their knives, the slip joint folder, has been around for nearly 500 years. Before folding knives had fancy locks to secure them in place, they used simple springs along the back of the knife. To open this blade, users have to overcome the tension of the spring until it “clicks” back into place.

These are the kind of knives that you have probably seen in your grandfather’s hands. They feature simple metal bolsters on each end, attractive scales, and 1 to 4 blades on each knife. Back in the day, these knives were typically used for fine jobs like whittling or sharpening quill pens. They are also a great option for simple everyday tasks like opening a letter or cutting a piece of cordage.

For many knife enthusiasts, a classic heirloom slip joint knife was the first knife they ever received. Whether you are looking to recreate that special gift for your own child or grandchild, or you are just looking for a gorgeous knife to add to your collection, our Great Eastern knives for sale are perfect options.

Classic designs are not the only thing Great Eastern Cutlery is preserving, they also construct their knives with classic materials. Colloquially known as grandpa steel, 1095 carbon steel has been a popular choice for knives for decades because it takes an edge quickly and can hold that edge well. This has made it one of the most popular varieties of steel for knives that need to handle plenty of use. The ability to handle this kind of hard work has made 1095 knives one of the most popular options for bushcraft enthusiasts. Some knifemakers experiment with more modern alloys, but Great Eastern Cutlery knows that you can’t beat a classic.
