XT1 Charlie
Description
Charlie don’t surf, but he sure as hell carries an XT1! Introducing the Charlie, the latest variant of the XT1, which is our largest frame lock folding knife.
The most noticeable update we’ve made is the modified drop point, standard curved blade, which allows the Charlie to be an all-purpose knife. This, combined with our G10 Hybrid Handle not only makes it one of our most aesthetically pleasing blades, but also one of the most versatile. Make no mistake though, as like its predecessors, the Charlie maintains its XT1 origins as the ultimate heavy duty folding knife for tactical and field environments.
With an overall length of 8.0" and weight of 4.6 oz, the XT1 Charlie is a full-size folding knife that can tackle all the challenging tasks within military and outdoor sporting environments. Its hardened steel lockbar insert with overtravel stop reduces wear and tear on the blade lock interface. This helps maintain lock longevity and creates a much larger surface area engagement, mitigating all open and closed blade movement. The additional mass to the handle allows for a titanium billet milled clip to sit in a machined recess, completely improving the overall durability of the pocket clip.
Additionally, the full G10 backspacer greatly improves the rigidity of all the frame body screws and relieves the stress from traditional threaded standoffs. It’s finished with a large loop for safety cords and lanyards that also features jimping. The XT1’s modified drop point blade is 0.157" (5/32) thick, and its hand-ground bevel stands about 1.0" tall. The initial edge is left slightly thicker prior to sharpening, allowing for a much larger final edge and more mass. This critical feature allows for longer edge life, as well as a more user-friendly grind to resharpen in the field.
Each XT1 Charlie is proudly made entirely here in San Diego, CA by our skilled and talented manufacturing team.

Folding Blade
Customers praise the exceptional craftsmanship and edge retention, calling it a "perfect work knife" with "second to none" quality. The blade holds a keen edge and features comfortable ergonomics. However, some reported pocket clip loosening, blade centering issues, and tight action. Customer service responsiveness received mixed feedback.
- Perfect work knife. Came centered, great lockup and action, and took a super keen edge.
- Quality of craftsmanship is second to none. These blades don't dull and stay sharp for a long time.
- This knife is top quality. Immaculate. Absolutely recommend
Excellent craftsmanship, fast service . I’d been wanting a folding Toor for a bit and treated myself for father’s day. I hope to get to the store this summer.

I bought an XT1-Alpha a couple years ago and always thought it was rad. Fast forward to the XT1-Charlie and it is awesome to see the slight changes Toor has made to the knife to take it to that next level. Perfect work knife. Came centered, great lockup and action, and took a super keen edge. I’ll probably end up buying another one some day if they do more versions.

I’ve bought a lot of Toor Knives and I’ve never been disappointed with anything. This is no different. It’s almost boring how good their knives are but I buy them cause they’re reliable and great quality. My only beef, the prices lol. But it is what it is. If you’re good at something, don’t sell yourself cheap.

Great knife!
The blade is fantastic and holds a great edge, the only problems I have had are the pocket clip coming loose while the screw is fully tightened, as well as blade centering issues that should not be a thing spending this amount of money.

The knife itself is awesome. It’s been a reliable EDC and it’s my go to work knife/EDC. Toor’s customer service on the other hand is the only reason I gave this 3 stars. I reached out multiple times and never got a reply. To me that’s not good service and lost my confidence in buying additional knives from them. It’s absolutely a reliable and awesome knife; just not awesome or reliable customer service.

I now have 2 Toor knives and the quality of craftsmanship is second to none. I have bought knives from other manufacturers in the past trying to save a buck, but turned out to be a waste. These blades don't dull and stay sharp for a long time.

Amazing quality, will be back for more!

Love everything about the knife! Only gripe is that the action is super tight and hard to open sometimes. If I loosen the pivot then the blade comes off center. It's openable just not "fidgety" I guess you could say.

Great build, really tough and the shape really complements your hand when you grab it as it has a curve so it creates a great grip. The handle is nice with awesome texture and looks tactical. Only semi complaint is that it wasn’t as sharp as I would expect it to be, still 5 stars

We got two blades engraved as gifts for members of our unit. The engraving image was intricate and highly detailed. I was worried that the image would look jumbled or cramped when engraved on the blades but they came out looking great. Couldn’t be happier with the quality of the knives and the level of customer service. Great products and great people at Toor!
