This lightweight folding knife with a wooden handle, stainless steel blade, and classic design is a functional yet collectible object from the late 20th century. The smooth drop-point blade is made of stainless steel and bears the engraving STAINLESS CHINA, which indicates industrial production in China. The warm wooden handle with visible grain and two brass rivets gives the knife a rustic, handcrafted appearance. The metal end pieces show a subtle patina, indicating natural aging.
The knife’s mechanism is functional; the blade shows slight signs of wear without any structural damage. With an overall length of approximately 18 centimeters, a blade length of around 9 centimeters, and a weight of 66 grams, it belongs to the compact and lightweight everyday knives of its time.
Stylistically, the piece can be placed in the period from the 1990s to the early 2000s, when such models were common both as utility items and as promotional gifts. Due to the wooden handle, solid craftsmanship, and visible patina, the knife has a particular collector’s value.
