Description
The Very Good Knife Company Tradition Jr. is a compact fixed blade built around a design that has been refined through years of real-world carry and use. Long before the Very Good Knife Company name was marked on the blade, Jacob was developing the Tradition platform with a focus on comfort, slicing performance, and everyday practicality.
This version of the Tradition Jr. features a 3.5" AEB-L stainless steel blade with a deep hollow grind designed to get extremely thin behind the edge. Its Nessmuk-inspired profile delivers excellent slicing performance while keeping the knife nimble and easy to control for everyday cutting tasks, food prep, utility work, and light outdoor use.
The handle is fitted with Burgundy Canvas Micarta scales paired with Green liners, giving the knife a rich, distinctive look while maintaining the secure, comfortable grip canvas micarta is known for. The compact 3.7" handle remains spacious enough for a confident grip without adding unnecessary bulk.
At just 7.2" overall and approximately 3.6 ounces, the Tradition Jr. carries more like a folder than a traditional fixed blade. Its lightweight construction and slim profile make it an excellent pocket dropper for anyone who wants the simplicity and reliability of a fixed blade without carrying a larger knife.
For users looking for a compact fixed blade with serious slicing ability, comfortable ergonomics, and a unique handle combination, the Very Good Knife Company Tradition Jr. is an excellent everyday carry option.
