The Carter XL Knife

The James Brand Carter XL is a full-size everyday carry knife built for people who want more handle and more working room without giving up clean carry. It’s slim and lightweight for its size, rides discreetly in the pocket, and is set up for one-handed use when you need it. If the standard Carter is the all-day, disappears-in-your-pocket option, the Carter XL is the one for bigger hands and harder daily use.

This is also the brand’s first knife with a slide-lock, and it’s a practical choice: secure, straightforward, ambidextrous, and easy to operate with one hand. The VG-10 stainless steel blade brings strong edge retention and corrosion resistance, while the symmetrical thumb disc gives you affirmative opening from either side. Machined G10 scales keep the handle solid in hand, and the deep-carry reversible pocket clip lets it sit low and out of the way—exactly what you want from a knife that earns regular pocket time.
