A minimalist pocket knife, redesigned for everyday carry

An innovative take on the classic penknife, The Elko is a minimalist and utilitarian tool that comes in handy far more often than you might first expect. This new version builds on everything that made the original a cult piece of everyday carry – the same capable stainless steel blade, the same pry bar that moonlights as a bottle opener, screwdriver and key ring – but with a refined handle that's softer in profile and grippier in the hand, an updated blade shape and cleaner hardware throughout. Available in four colourways – each with its own combination of handle, blade and hardware finish – so you can pick the one that suits how you carry. Less is still very much more, and despite its compact size, this is a blade that earns its place on your keys and its reputation through daily use.

  • Black/Black – all-black handle, blade and hardware for a clean, stealthy look
  • Refined handle design – softer profile with a tactile grip texture for a more confident hold
  • Updated blade profile and hardware for a cleaner, more considered look
