Fällkniven AB celebrates its 40th anniversary in the international knife market with The Fällkniven Phantom model, a folding knife that is not only aesthetically appealing but also functional, with well-balanced proportions between handle and blade.

The blade uses advanced Swedish powdered steel (Elmax from Uddeholm), equipped with a convex edge for maximum performance. The handle is made of ironwood harvested in the southwestern United States, known for its density (1.2 kg/dm³) that makes it heavy and strong enough not to float.

The design of the Phantom follows the Scandinavian principle of "Form follows function," favoring clean, classic lines without superfluous details. 

The Phantom comes in a gift box with a multifunctional leather case with a belt clip that can be worn either horizontally or vertically.
