Pocket knives built to be carried, used, and passed down.

Specs
- Blade profile: Sheepsfoot
- Blade steel: Sandvik 12C27 (Swedish-made)
- Handle: Grade 5 Titanium
- Lock type: Friction folder — no lock mechanism
- Includes leather sheath (Natural or Black depending on variant)
Blade profile: Sheepsfoot
A sheepsfoot blade has a straight cutting edge and a curved, blunt top. The tip doesn’t come to a sharp point. Designed for slicing and controlled cuts rather than piercing — ideal for food prep, camp cooking, and situations where tip control matters.
No locking mechanism
The Samla is a friction folder — the blade stays open through geometry and carry angle, not a lock. Traditional and intentional. For a locking knife, the WESN Allman locks with a titanium frame lock.
Shipping restriction
Due to local laws, this item cannot be shipped to the United Kingdom, Australia, or Japan.

FAQ
What is a sheepsfoot blade?
A blade profile with a straight cutting edge and a curved, blunt tip — it doesn’t come to a sharp point. It’s designed for slicing tasks where the tip isn’t needed: food prep at camp, cutting rope, general utility. Precise and safe when working near surfaces or fingers.
What’s a friction folder and is it safe?
A friction folder stays open through the geometry of the design — no spring, no lock. The blade won’t close during normal cutting use, but closes when you deliberately fold it. It’s simpler than a slip-joint and has been used in traditional Scandinavian knives for generations. Used correctly, it’s perfectly safe.
Does the Samla come with a sheath?
Yes. Every Samla includes a leather sheath — Natural leather with the Titanium variant, Black leather with the Blacked Out Titanium.
What’s Sandvik 12C27 steel?
Swedish stainless steel made by Sandvik — excellent corrosion resistance, good edge stability, and easy to maintain sharp. A reliable, well-tested steel used in Scandinavian and outdoor knives for decades. Not the most exotic steel, but one of the most consistently well-performing.
Are WESN knives legal everywhere?
No. Knife laws vary by country, state, and city. The Samla (friction folder, non-locking) is typically permitted in more places than locking knives, but check your local regulations before carrying. This item does not ship to the UK, Australia, or Japan.
- Tool-grade steel — S35VN, D2, or Swedish Sandvik. Holds an edge, resists rust, sharpens easily.
- Titanium & G10 handles — strong, light, weatherproof. Soft edges, clean lines, minimal logos.
- Backed by WESN’s lifetime warranty — any defect in materials or craftsmanship, they make it right.
