The James Brand Barnes Knife

At The James Brand they are all about ensuring that they make the very best knives and tools on the market and will always strive to push the boundaries of what is achievable. With that in mind, they are rightly proud to introduce the Barnes Knife. The Barnes is a titanium framelock, and it’s the brand’s very first integral design. The Barnes is CNC-machined from one solid billet of 6AL4V titanium, which means fewer parts, less maintenance and the ability to do things with the form that you cannot do in standard knife construction.

Prices start at $649 for the Barnes Knife from The James Brand and it is available in a number of different materials / colours. The Barnes is CNC-machined from one solid billet of 6AL4V titanium which is great for you as it means less parts and, crucially, less maintenance and the ability to do things with the form that you cannot do in standard knife craftsmanship. The Barnes is built around a 3.5 inch Bohler M390 stainless steel blade and this The James Brand’s first knife with M390 which is widely regarded as the singular best blade steel. The blade runs on a stainless steel pivot and ceramic bearings, and the clip is CNC-machined titanium as well.

The Barnes Knife from The James Brand is set apart from their other offerings as it comes with their very first coin design, as it’s bad luck to give a knife as a gift without exchanging the coin, and comes with a paracord lanyard as well. It’s the coolest and most technically advanced knife The James Brand have produced in our opinion here at Coolector HQ. The Barnes gets its moniker from one of the oldest projectile points found in North America, dating back more than 11,000 years.

This classy and functional piece of EDC from The James Brand is crafted around a 3.5 inch stainless steel blade.
