Dear Readers,

Just a very quick update to let you know the Hoo Knives V1 has been updated to allow for the pocket clip to be changed from right to left-handed tip-up carry.

We hope this change will allow for the V1 to accommodate everyone despite knife hand preference. ?

We are expecting the first Prototypes to be finished by the end of this month.

Update 29/03/21 – Hoo Knives V1

Dear Readers,

Thank you for taking the time to check out our website, I am humbled by the overwhelming support received in regards to my first design.

Primarily designed for the British/German EDC market but hoping to find its way into the hands of enthusiasts around the world – the knife is under 3 inches & non-locking with a flipper tab to act as a finger guard when the blade is deployed.

The knife is designed to run on a Non-locking double detent system with ball-bearings.

Two prototypes are currently under development and have a planned 30 days of development time.

After vigorous testing to ensure top quality and signing off on the prototypes, we will move into the production stage – once production is in place it will be 70 days for the knives to be made and assembled + shipping/postage to the UK and then to the customer.

Our plan is to open pre-orders once we have signed off on the prototypes and the first batch of 200 pocket knives is in the process of being made.

Some key features of the pocket knife can be found below-

  • T4C Titanium scales, pocket clip and backspacer & M390 blade steel.
  • Non-locking blade. 
  • 2.90” cutting edge. 
  • Pocket clip removable and recessed into scale. 

Finally, we would like to thank you for your interest and patience, you can sign up for future updates here- https://hooknives.com/my-account.

Please enjoy some of the latest photographs of the design in PC 3D format.

Kindest regards,

Hoo Knives.
