Experience the Retract – a high-performance folding knife designed by celebrated custom knifemaker and bladesmith Ed Schempp. Engineered for knife enthusiasts, the Retract delivers outstanding cutting power in a sleek, practical everyday carry design.
The hallmark of the Retract is its dramatically curved, full-flat-ground blade, expertly crafted from premium 9Cr18MoV stainless steel. Drawing inspiration from the renowned Nepalese kukri, the blade’s negative angle maximises cutting leverage, making it especially effective for draw cuts and demanding slicing tasks. This recurved blade delivers exceptional edge control and versatility, making it perfect for both outdoor and everyday use.
The robust handle features full skeletonised stainless steel liners, peel-ply-textured G-10 scales for a secure, non-slip grip, and a partial G-10 backspacer for added strength. The reliable LinerLock mechanism is precision-machined nearly flush with the liners, preventing accidental closure and guaranteeing safe operation.
For discreet, low-profile carry, the Retract features a lined lanyard hole and a deep-pocket wire clip, fully reversible for left- or right-side, tip-up carry. This versatile design ensures the knife is always ready for immediate access, no matter your preference.
