Abstract
A knife is provided having a blade, foldably supported by a handle, and a hook for fastening the knife onto another object apart from the knife. A pair of brackets are integrally and flexibly formed with the handle to pivotably attach the base of the hook to the handle. The brackets are given flexibility as a result of being resin-molded integrally with the handle. The hook has a base which is directly attached to the brackets, and a body which is hooked onto an object. Both brackets have a pair of bearing holes lying on the same axis. The base of the hook also has a pair of support shafts which are rotatably fit into both the bearing holes. The hook can then be pivotably attached to both brackets by fitting both support shafts into both bearing holes.
