perfect gentleman's folder...for office setting

God I hope they change that one day. I love the look of the alox ones but I've never picked one up because the toothpick is one of the most used things on my SAK. I won't buy a knife I have no intention of carrying and without the toothpick I would always opt for 1 of my other SAK's over the alox.
It's a shame because they're so freaking nice looking, but I guess they can always be paired with a vic classic ( who doesn't own a Victorinox classic )
While they're at it Victorinox should also bring back the pocket pal, but this time they shouldn't make the mistake of producing a celador model without the toothpick and tweezers.
I mean the only reason to even stick with a celador vic is for the ever important toothpick and tweezers, it seems to me that Victorinox realized this and instead of fixing it they just ditched it for it's alox brother the secretary.
Anyways I'm gonna say again that " you just can't go wrong with Victorinox ", if Victorinox doesn't have a slogan this should be it because it extremely true.
 
You won't need much "haard use kneefs" in the office, so I would suggest something like Case Peanut

I'm also going to through some love at a knife maker here, even though it's listed at $155. I feel like this flipper is pure sexy and I'm honestly not sure why I haven't ordered one yet, other than the rath of my wife and my previous purchases of "Christmas gifts."

This 3.3" flipper with the textured blade really does it for me and I feel like it adds enough "art" to make it feel classy too.

I feel the same way as I like the tweezers and toothpick accessories. I have alox ones, but they never get used anymore. The tweezers and toothpick are too small for me on the Vic classic. The Bantam is a good one.

There are lots of nice options out there but the best office carry I have is the Chaparral. It might be my favorite knife, I can't make up my mind on that one.
 
I'd spring for a traditional. So many options for covers. I personally carry a Sebenza 25 in the office, but I can wear jeans and no one bats an eye at it. If you want modern one hand opening I'd go for something in carbon fiber. I dunno why but CF goes well with the office in my mind :D
 
Mcusta Nami, beautifully crafted and slim knife that would look great in an office setting.
Small is just shy of 3", large (pictured) is 3.25", both can be had for right around $100.


I have the small Nami and can not open it with one hand. The knife looks nice, but it is a two handed knife for me.
I second the Chaparral, or as an alternative, the Kiwi 4. Smaller is better in an office, and so I would go with the Chaparral.
 
Gonna have to vote for the Leek on this one. Fantastic little knife! And the blue anno'd framelock version? Damn!

Give GECs and other traditionals a look. They're more than capable for anything you'd do in an office.

you can try an Opinel No.8 garden knife. This little knife is amazing, sandvik steel, and totally office friendly..

Well would be if you replaced the paracord with leather :D

I'm a big fan of that model as well. It's probably my most used knife outside the kitchen.
 
Chapparl is a great choice. My new favorite is the Quitecarry Strand. A new company, but made in California using Ti and D2, small and sleek. Fits nicely in the coin pocket. All for $130. IF you check out my youtube channel linked below I have a recent review of it.
 
Arrived today from the States, solid little thing, could even use it as a toothpick.:D

Thin and lightweight are ideal for an office knife. If you wear a suit, a thin folder can clip to an inside breast pocket. Otherwise, I'd remove the clip and go deep pocket carry. Stainless Delica is elegant, but heavy. The FRN is practical, but not very elegant. A Leek is also good, with the anodized aluminum handle.
