The 8 Best Pocket box Knives (2023 reviews)

This knife is breathtaking with a modern design with an old school aesthetic. It offers practical utility for everyday tasks. The jukebox features a 2.7 inch satin finished fine edge blade, with acrylic handle scales available in two unique colorways. It is reminiscent of a knife that could be found in an old school barber shop, a polished gentleman's knife that can be easily carried in a pocket. The tip of the blade is also very nice, it cuts through paper and insulation even when dull because of the geometry.

This knife has a excellent shape for use with a strong liner lock. The lack of a spring or cam is not a problem with this flipper style knife and the liner lock keeps it from closing during use. The retro straight razor look and build is unique.

Best For EDC: outdoor Edge Pocket box Knife

Buy on Amazon

Not everyone likes to purchase knife for their daily usage, but the outdoor edge pocket box knife would be an anomoly. The Slidewinder is a very small tool so it does not take up a significant amount of space or add weight. It's super easy to use and swap out blades. The box cutter type knife slides back so it's safe and it's sturdy for use as a tool. The slide mechanism is easily disengaged when being used left-handed. It is button operated which is a plus.

There is a slight wiggle that comes from shaking the Slidewinder but this is actually the slide mechanism rather than the blade. The only thing is that it can be tricky to swap the blades but overall its good. This product is perfect for anyone opening up boxes.

Why We Like This:

Perfect secure fit when cutting with this utility knife
Super handy for edc utility knife, and easy blade change access, multi-functional
Great construction and super easy to hold while cutting
Great small knife, easy to replace the blade vs sharpening

Best With switch: Itokey Pocket box Knife

Buy on Amazon

We would, of course, be remiss if we didn't mention itokey pocket box knife for daily usage. Cutting rope, straps and tape are perfect tasks for this little knife. It opens like a switchblade, which is convenient (but who knows if that mechanism will wear out over time or not) and allows one hand opening. It is easy to use, the spring is so smooth and it works so well. The Button is easy to press and it flings open with force. It allows one hand opening and also it is perfect tasks for this little knife.

The orange one would be a lot easier to find if you drop in a dimly-lit area. It is a great addition to any keychain, and you won't loose it if you slam on the car breaks like other tools that slide away.

Best For Husband: Albatross Pocket box Knife

Buy on Amazon

The features department is where albatross pocket box knife truly manages to shine. The blade is beefy and the semi-hawks bill shape gives plenty of blade edge surface. It is comfortable to hold and also can be used in modern damascus steel blades. The shape of this blade is particularly cool because it cuts forward and backward with easy and cuts smooth as butter.

The Damascus layers are not real smooth (as you can feel the layers with your finger tips) but the overall look and feel of the knife is outstanding and comes very sharp. It's only held in place by a single, tiny star-head screw. It is good shape for self defense however the action is pretty tight and doesn't open easily with a single hand.

Great pocket knife that is unique
Would make a food gift for husband or dad or boyfriend

Best For Knife handles: Cohomelars Pocket box Knife

Buy on Amazon

The cohomelars pocket box knife might be a relatively new release, but it's still nothing short of impressive this year. The black semi-polished G10 handle scales have a nice finish.

The handle has provides a good grip, and the skeletonized feature is nice, and the knife feels light and well balance. It is made with fiberglass instead of conventional cloth.

This knife opens easily with one hand, locks up nice and tight, just like it should, and closes easily when you are done. It is easy to grind a second side and make it a true dagger which would make it a lot trickier to handle safely as a tool. The cross bar lock is absolutely awesome and smooth as can be and its riding on generously sized bearings. The blade opens easily, is bright and shiny, and very sharp.
