  • Where minimal design meets maximum utility. The Pilar III transforms the minimalist s sailor knife into a distinctly urban everyday carry folder while keeping the spirit of the classic and the epic tale behind its name. It s still low profile and understated when tucked away; and carefully designed to punch above its weight when in use.Jesper Voxnaes designed the original Pilar in his Logstrup; Denmark shop; and named it after Ernest Hemingway s beloved boat the 38-foot long vessel that he used for renegade surveillance of German U-boats during WWII in Caribbean waters. The world-famous author was also a WWI combat vet; big-game hunter; sailor; and fisherman; and certainly would have selected an everyday knife companion like the Pilar III for his daily endeavors.The substantial 2.9” spear point blade of the Pilar III features a satin finish and the fine but strong tip is useful for more detailed tasks. The highly grippy G10 handle thrives throughout years of use and the eye-catching; stainless steel lanyard loop elevates the look. A thumb slot opening mechanism deploys the blade and the IKBS ball bearing pivot system makes for a super smooth rotation.The modern Hemingway is the ultimate Renaissance man; and the Pilar III is the knife that will stand up to the challenge.
