Magnusson Folding Knife

Magnusson is a specialized brand of hand tools designed primarily for trade professionals and serious DIY enthusiasts. The brand was established by the British multinational retail company Kingfisher plc to serve as its core private-label hand tool offering across its European retail network, including well-known retailers such as B&Q and Screwfix.

While the brand project and design management are based in the United Kingdom, the manufacturing of Magnusson products, including this folding utility knife, is primarily outsourced to manufacturing facilities in China. This allows the brand to maintain a balance between professional-grade durability and competitive pricing for the European market.

Today, Magnusson remains a wholly-owned subsidiary brand of Kingfisher plc. Based in London, Kingfisher is one of the world's largest home improvement retailers, operating over 1,500 stores across eight countries. The Magnusson line is a key part of their strategy to provide high-quality exclusive brands that offer professional performance standards across their international commercial banners.
