SlicKnives absolutely loves basic, single blade designs that everyday people can safely rely upon to get their work done, so that they can relax at the end of the day. If you need a slicey and hard-working locking blade, our FlicKnives series of folding knives are just for you.
SlicKnives has designed our FlicKnives series in the U.S. and have them made from distressed tumbled stonewashed AUS10 stainless steel by our expert knife making partners in Taiwan. The Homesteader 3.5 TM includes a smooth manual flipping 3.5” modified sheepsfoot blade and ceramic ball bearing pivot, a solid liner lock with ceramic detent, and a full comfortable grip with a strong 4-position stonewashed pocket clip that will make it your go-to large EDC knife.
The Homesteader 3.5 is less pokey than other blade profiles and comes super-sharp out of the box with a full flat grind and a secondary beveled edge for strength, ease of sharpening, and years of service. We’ve included jimping along the spine of the liners under your thumb to improve handling of tough jobs and along the liner lock release for easy one-hand closing. To allow for choking up on the Homesteader 3.5 for finer tasks, we’ve included a finger choil for proper handling. And since it’s made with quality stainless steel, you won’t need to worry about the edge or blade corroding at the end of the day.
Black G10 scales have been chosen to provide a tough, long-lasting grip that holds up over a day’s work, even when it gets wet. The ergonomic grip is mounted to the Homesteader 3.5 with screws for durability and includes a hole that’s ready for a safety cord or brightly colored length of paracord for improved visibility if you so choose. Adding a Homesteader 3.5 to your EDC items will prove to be one of the wisest long-term choices that you can make.
And if you don’t care for the included black scales or need something more visible, check out our easy-to-change options in a variety of colors, so that you can customize the Homesteader 3.5 to your liking!
