Mushroom Field-Knife | Folding Foraging Knife With Brush
The Mushroom Field-Knife combines the two field tasks a careful forager performs most: making a clean cut at the stem and brushing away soil before the harvest goes into the basket. The folding format keeps the tool compact between stops, while the specialized blade and integrated brush save you from carrying separate tools through the woods.
Its oiled wooden handle has traditional brass rivets and opens to a practical eight-inch overall length. At the opposite end, 10 bundles of bristles help clean caps, stems, and gills without bringing unnecessary forest debris back to the kitchen. The result is a purpose-built tool for mushroom work, not a general knife with a decorative brush added as an afterthought.
Carry it in a jacket pocket, garden bag, or dedicated foraging kit. It is especially useful when the goal is to inspect, trim, and clean a find while the details are still visible in the field.
What it’s for:
- Cutting mushroom stems cleanly during responsible field harvesting
- Brushing soil and woodland debris from caps, stems, and gills
- Equipping a mushroom basket, field bag, or woodland foraging kit

- Folding steel blade with a straight edge and brushed finish
- Oiled wooden handle secured with brass rivets
- Integrated cleaning brush made with 10 bristle bundles
Specs:

- At 8" open, it is compact enough for a jacket pocket, garden bag, or foraging kit, but useful enough to become the tool you reach for on every woodland walk
Care & Field Notes:
- After use, remove residue from the blade and dry it promptly
- Remove debris from the bristles and let the brush air-dry before folding the knife away
- Confirm mushroom identification with reliable expert guidance before consuming any wild fungi
