1946 Slipjoint – Tradition Meets Modern Design
Keith Griffin – the creative mind behind Combat Beads and the Griffin Company – has a soft spot for slipjoints. Especially for this one: the 1946 Slipjoint.
It’s a tribute to his father’s pocketknife, born in 1946 – a man who, like many of his generation, never left the house without a knife in his pocket. Back then, a pocketknife wasn’t just a tool, but part of everyday life: practical, reliable, and always ready.
With the 1946, you don’t get a retro remake – you get exactly what Griffin is known for: a thoroughly modern design with strong roots in tradition.
Details:
Titanium frame with bold bolsters
Inlays in brass, micarta, or carbon
3D-milled titanium pocket clip
CPM S90V drop point blade with long pull and half stop
The dual fullers, slicey drop point blade, and confident half stop make the 1946 both versatile and perfectly suited for everyday use. Whether you prefer the warm look of brass or the sleek feel of carbon, the choice of materials lets you steer the design toward classic or modern.
Discreet in the pocket, timeless in design – the 1946 is built to be carried and used every single day.
