Top 5 Budget Traditional Slipjoint Pocket Knives Under $40\£40 

Great video, got the small and large imperial sodbusters from HH recently to see if id like the pattern. Both of mine had a fair bit of blade play when open and off centre when closed. Was able to sort these issues out myself and now they're absolutely solid , tuned up and shaving sharp - brilliant value for money. Have used the small one almost every day since i got it for everything from cutting vegetables, cardboard boxes and prepping trout and mackerel. Its so small and lightweight its really easy to pocket carry.

These are really nice budget options. The Marbles D2 Sowbelly is the standout IMO. Thanks Slippy.

The imperial sodbuster looks fantastic.

Need that Marbles D2 sowbelly. Brilliant video 🫡

Nice choices, have the Sodbuster Jr in yellow as it's a little harder to loose. Have you had a look at some of the Joker slip joints? There are some very nice examples, one with a carbon steel blade and olive wood scales is one of my favourites and it was around £17. Do like that Barlow.

5 examplary budget options. Real value for money choices. Thank you Matt.

Need to pick up a Queen Barlow very nice color.

Love the Marbles knife, and the Buck,, 👍,, thanks for showing us these.

Thank you for showing this great mix of knives, I have the Marbles in my basket for this month already, I will check to see if I can get the Queen Barlow or the Buck as well. Thank you again, sometimes you can’t see the the wood for the trees🤣 and you need another opinion . Take care and I will let you know what I buy. Sam

Slippy I prefure barlow any day must have at least two blades for mainly carving but I do love the imperial sow belly stockman I own a imperial barlow pocket knife worthy you getting one no country of origin on mine could be China or Ireland who knows I has that buck but don't like steel they use I force a patina on my carbon steel blades stick blade in lemon 👍🐾🦊🇮🇹

Great looking knives! Very nice prices! Have a wonderful week!!

I have that Imperial. For the money they charge for it, it is hard to beat. It isn't flashy or fancy. It is purely functional. As usual I think you have good taste.

Great picks…….. isn’t it amazing what you can get in the budget pieces……. Thanks for showing them have a great 4th oh July stay well over there😊

Those are 5 great choices. It just goes to show that a good serviceable knife doesn't have to cost a fortune.

Interesting choices. Have you tried Roper?

Nice selection.

The Buck seemed to have quite a bit of gap on the spine

Im looking into getting a Slipjoint knife atm maybe you could help me with what I’m looking for. I’m looking for a Slipjoint (preferably classic style but won’t shy away from modern) that isn’t to big and has a hole for paracord/lanyard. I would appreciate some suggestions. Thanks
