Purpose & User

The Damascus Depot Laguiolle is a folding knife built for hunting, camping and everyday carry. Its 4.5 inch Damascus steel blade and red wood handle with brass bolster suit outdoor enthusiasts who value a traditional pattern-welded look and a compact tool for field tasks. The knife arrives new with a cow hide leather sheath for belt carry.

Build Fit & Carry

The folder measures 8.6 inches open and 4.6 inches closed, so it slips into a pocket or the included sheath without adding bulk. Brass pins reinforce the handle scales, and the 3.5 inch cutting edge handles food prep, rope or kindling. No fixed-blade rigidity is offered, so users needing full-tang strength for heavy batoning should look elsewhere.

Sustained Use Behaviour

The blade is forged from 1095 and 15N20 high and low carbon steels, heat-treated to 56 to 58 HRC for edge retention during extended cutting sessions. High carbon content means the steel will rust if left damp; the supplier advises cleaning, oiling and avoiding long-term storage in the leather sheath to maintain performance over time.
