The Old Timer Bruin 50th Anniversary knife is a Heritage Series lockback folder built around a D2 steel drop point blade (Old Timer part no. 1135989). The handle is gray laminate wood, finished with nickel silver bolsters, a nickel silver pommel and nickel silver pins for the classic look of a working pocketknife. At 6.5 inches overall it is sized for a shirt pocket or a belt pouch rather than a heavy duty role. It is a good match for outdoorsmen and everyday carriers who like a traditional pattern in a modern tool steel. Old Timer describes it as built to be passed down from generation to generation.

Key Specifications

• The blade is 2.8 inches long, a short length that is easy to control for everyday cutting.
• The blade profile is a drop point, which gives a sturdy tip and a smooth belly for slicing.
• Blade steel is D2, a tool steel known for holding an edge longer than common pocketknife steels.
• The knife is a lockback folder, so the blade locks open for use and releases with a press on the spine.
• Overall length is 6.5 inches, which puts it in the compact range for pocket carry.
• The handle is gray laminate wood, a traditional material that resists moisture better than plain wood.
• The bolsters are nickel silver, a corrosion-resistant metal that suits the traditional styling.
• The pommel and pins are also nickel silver, which keeps the hardware consistent across the handle.
• The knife is sold as the Heritage Bruin 50th Anniversary, the model name on the maker’s page.
