The Modern Pocket Knife
The Duval is our first front-flipper, combining the best features of two classic knife silhouettes into a sleek and functional new form. Traditional gentlemen's knives require two hands to open and close, and they don't generally lock. With its front-flipper opening style and it's frame-lock design, you get the best of both worlds: the ease of opening and security of a traditional frame-lock knife, combined with slimness, symmetry and beauty of a classic gentlemen's pocket knife.

The Modern Gentlemen's Knife.
The Duval is our first front-flipper, combining the best features of two classic knife silhouettes into a sleek and functional new form. Traditional gentlemen's knives require two hands to open and close, and they don't generally lock.

THE MODERN GENTLEMEN'S POCKET KNIFE
The Best in Materials and Design.
The Duval uses American-made Crucible s35vn stainless blade steel, and has a frame of 6al4v titanium. The modified sheepsfoot blade shape is as useful as it is beautiful. The main pivot uses ceramic ball bearings for an incredibly smooth action. Scale options include rosewood and OD green micarta.
With the Duval we took cues from mid-century design and combined them with the very best materials to create a modern-day gentlemen's pocket knife that has all of the features of a traditional frame-lock design.
Front-flipper open style.

Awesome
Swooped it from the sale and it's my 5th piece from the brand and I continue to be more and more impressed. This one lives on a lanyard for outdoor adventures, times that I'm not wearing stuff where a clip is easily utilized. Feels great in the hand, very sharp and is beautiful as well!

Just beautiful
This is a timeless looking knife. I’m not usually a fan of front flippers, but the action is smooth and easy. I really like this knife.

Look Elsewhere
This is the second knife I've bought from the James Brand. The first one was a Carter which I use all the time and have never had any problems with. This one though was a disappointment. When it arrived the wood scale on one side already had a crack in it. Really not convinced on the quality for something that costs $300. Along with being extremely hard to open, I would look at other products.
