The James Brand Redstone outdoor knife is positioned as a functional accessory that maintains an eye-catching design to flaunt its purpose rather than maintaining a discreet aesthetic. The knife is finished with a Coral + Turquois color that could call to mind the colors of the Nintendo Switch Joy-Con controllers, but was ultimately chosen to make the accessory as appealing and friendly as possible. The knife has a compact 6.2-inch size when open and is paired with a Sandvik 12C27 steel blade that will lock into place when opened to maximize safety.
The James Brand Redstone outdoor knife was created in collaboration with Savannah Cummins and is paired with a clip to allow for easily positioning it onto a belt or attaching a lanyard.
