The Aleman pocket knife is our first "multitool" kiridashi. It features an integrated bottle opener in the handle along with our classic flat dashi style cutting edge. The Aleman is a minimalist fixed blade pocket knife that comes equipped with a low profile leather sleeve that fits comfortably in a front or back pocket and tosses easily into a day pack or purse.
We base almost all of our pocket knife designs on the traditional Japanese kiridashi form because it is ideally suited to almost any daily task. The flat pointed blade profile makes it ideal for detail work and slicing and the ergonomic handle means its very comfortable in hand despite not having wood scales.
The Aleman is the perfect choice if you are looking for a gift for that knife lover in your life. Its a useful knife that is unlike almost any other knife on the market; a classic design with a modern twist.
The knife measures 5.6" with a cutting edge just under 2". It is crafted from 1095 high carbon steel, a blade steel known for its edge retention and toughness. This steel is not stainless so please follow the care instructions included with your knife.
**Must be 18 years or older to purchase. Know your local knife laws.**
Leather sleeves are custom made to fit each blade. Select which colour you prefer to customize yours. A leather lanyard cord that is matched to the sheath.
With its compact size and sturdy build, this is an excellent every-day pocket knife that will hold up for decades.

- ▼Ordering Notes
- Please order the sheath colour you'd prefer.
- ▼Materials
- Our blades are made with high carbon steel. This steel is known for its edge retention and durability. However, unlike stainless steel these blades will naturally oxidize over time and gain a beautiful patina.
Care must be taken to prevent corrosion or rust on the blade. Click here for information on how to care for your Origin Handcrafted knife. - ◄Guarantee
- Our knives are designed with everyday use in mind and come with an Everyday Structural Guarantee. If for some reason our knives fail to perform as they should, we will replace or repair them at no cost to you. Note that this guarantee does not apply if the knife has been misused or improperly cared for.
To ensure your knife lasts as long (and longer) than you do, follow the steps outlined in our Knife Care section.

Conall - Antler Lined Whiskey Barrel Ring
$310.00
-
** These rings have free shipping to Canada **
Oak wood, seasoned by years of use as a whiskey barrel, forms the base of this exceptional ring.
We carefully select the pieces of oak with the best character and turn them by hand to form the central band.
Carbon fiber, consisting of 24,000 individual strands, is wrapped by hand around the edges. This creates lasting strength and durability, while adding eye-catching contrast.
Finally, we use naturally-shed deer antler to form a smooth inner-lining that puts this ring in a league of its own.
The result? A rugged wedding or engagement ring defined by dramatic contrasts and hand-crafted allure.
Because we use natural materials in our rings, your ring may not look exactly like the ring pictured. Every piece of material we use has its own unique colour and grain pattern, which is what makes these rings so beautiful. Your ring will also age distinctly over time.
- This ring is available in sizes 6 – 15 (4 – 15 for some rings), in quarter size increments. Unless you request otherwise, they will be made in the following widths:
- Sizes 6 to 8 | 7mm width
- Sizes 8.25 to 11.75 | 8mm width
- Sizes 12 to 15 | 9mm width

We also suggest that you take them off while doing dishes or in the bath, as prolonged exposure to hot soapy water can age the wood prematurely.

Prairie - Bison and Whiskey Barrel Ring
$325.00
-
** These rings have free shipping to Canada **
We recognize that we are on Treaty 1 territory and respect the significance of the Bison to Indigenous culture. The bison horn we use in our work is responsibly-sourced from farms here in Manitoba.
Traditionally, the Bison represents strength, endurance, and protection. They embody the spirit of living free and in harmony with nature.
It starts by shaping bison horn by hand, with extra care taken to retain the amazing texture and color of the horn.
Then, for contrast, we take a piece of oak harvested from a retired whiskey barrel and hand-turn it into a thin ring.
Finally, carbon fiber is wrapped around the ring for durability and toughness.
Wear a piece of wild prairie history on your finger with this striking ring.
Because we use natural materials in our rings, your ring may not look exactly like the ring pictured. Every piece of horn we use has its own unique colour and grain pattern, which is what makes these rings so beautiful. Your ring will also age distinctly over time.
