Old Timer Heritage Series Middleman 340T Folding Knife, D2 Steel Blades, Black Wood Laminate Handle

The Old Timer Heritage Series Middleman 340T is a three-blade folding knife built for hunters, anglers, and anyone who needs reliable steel in the field or on the job. This is the kind of knife that earns its place in your pack year after year—no frills, honest steel, and a design that works. Old Timer's reputation rests on tools that get handed down, not discarded, and the Middleman lives up to that standard with D2 steel blades and black wood laminate scales that age well with use.

Three different blade profiles give you versatility without the weight. The 2.4-inch clip point blade handles general cutting and processing tasks. The 2-inch sheepsfoot blade offers a flat edge that's safe and controlled for detail work—essential if you're field-dressing game or prepping camp meals. The 1.7-inch pen blade rounds out the trio for delicate cuts and precision jobs where point control matters. Each blade is D2 steel, a high-carbon tool steel that holds an edge and resists corrosion well enough for serious outdoor use. At 7.2 inches overall, the Middleman is compact enough for EDC but substantial enough to trust.

The black wood laminate handle gives you a warm, traditional grip that doesn't slip when wet. Nickel silver bolsters and pins anchor the blades and add a touch of class—this isn't a disposable knife. It's the kind of tool that becomes part of your kit, whether you're a backcountry hunter, a camp cook, or someone who simply demands quality steel they can count on.
