The James Brand Ellis LTD Knife

The James Brand, though still a relatively new brand, has made huge waves in the everyday carry community for their ability to balance functionality and style in a way others simply can’t. And while each and every product they make is noteworthy, their latest release is truly special — worthy perhaps of being called their magnum opus. Allow us to introduce you to The Ellis LTD multi-tool knife.

As you’ve probably gathered, the LTD means that this tool is limited edition. In fact, only 100 will ever be made. And while that in itself is enticing, it gets even more so when you delve into this everyday carry wonder’s features. For starters, it boasts slick carbon fiber scales that are as beautiful as they are lightweight and tough. In fact, this is their first ever carbon fiber offering. Those scales hide a pair of black PVD-coated tools — one, a partially-serrated Sandvik 12C27 steel 2.6″ blade, and the other, a hybrid screwdriver/scraper/bottle opener tool. The whole impressive package measures up at 6.1″ overall and comes with a bail loop for easy keychain attachment or to tie on a lanyard — like the limited edition Electric Moss green Ulu bead they include with each Ellis. Pricing is set at $225 each and it’s first-come-first-served, so you’d better act quickly.
