Meet the Douk-Douk Knife — a no-lock mechanism, no-nonsense, slipjoint knife. Forged from high carbon steel, the knife features a Turkish clip contour blade with a ferro-blackened folded steel handle. With a quick flick of the wrist, this slim, smooth action blade is ready for action and is supported by a strong back spring for safe opening. Originally designed for French colonies, the handle has been etched with native French-colonial mythological creatures — douk-douks — and bears a Melanesian spirit incarnation image that is believed to bring good luck. The Douk-Douk Knife retails for $32 USD online over at Best Made Company.
