The knife we wanted to carry didn't exist, so we made it.

With the Chapter knife, simple is significant.

It's the classic single-blade folder re-imagined. The titanium frame-lock construction is the simplest there is, with minimal moving parts and maintenance. The S35vn stainless steel blade holds an edge, resists corrosion and as is easy to care for. Available with a partially serrated, straight or tanto blade. The Chapter is a knife for a built for hard use and solid adventures. The knife we wanted to carry didn't exist, so we made it. This is the knife for a lifetime.

Practical, not tactical.

The Chapter is the reason the James Brand exists; the knife that started it all. We wanted a pocketknife that fit our lifestyle, clean and modern yet dependably functional. The Chapter was a design exercise in restraint; we stripped all unnecessary parts away and focused on creating an iconic form and details. It was important for the Chapter to be a clean, minimal design whether open or closed, with a clip that became the hero both near and far.
