The Arkansas toothpick is a traditional knife design that originated in the 19th century in the United States, particularly associated with Arkansas. Its name comes from its long, narrow blade, which was originally used for picking teeth, but it quickly gained popularity as a general-purpose knife.
Historically, the Arkansas toothpick was favored by frontiersmen and soldiers due to its versatility. It was used for everything from everyday tasks to self-defense. The knife became iconic in American folklore, often associated with the rugged lifestyle of the American South.
In modern times, the Arkansas toothpick has seen a resurgence in interest among knife collectors and enthusiasts, appreciated for its craftsmanship and historical significance. It is also featured in various cultural representations, reinforcing its status as a symbol of Americana.
