Eye Brand has been making traditional pocketknives in Solingen Germany for centuries. For having such an incredibly long history, these knives are also reasonably affordable. Here are four new Eye Brand knives.
The Carl Schlieper German Eye Brand Clodbuster is much like Case’s Sodbuster or GEC’s Bullnose. It’s a slipjoint folder with a single carbon steel blade perfect for use on the farm, in the field, or simply carried in your pocket for everyday use. The détente on these knives is outstanding. The feel in the hand is very good. It’s now available with a black composition handle or a wood handle. You can get these work knives for less than $50.
