Description
Take a close look at this knife, forged from a blend of 1095 and 15N20 steels, folded repeatedly to form the distinctive Damascus pattern that ripples across the blade. This pattern is not just for show,it’s a sign of the layered steel’s strength and resilience, giving the blade the ability to hold a keen edge through hard use. The gut hook carved into the blade’s spine is a practical feature, designed to aid hunters in field dressing game by allowing a clean, controlled cut without puncturing internal organs.
The blade is full tang, meaning the steel extends through the entire length of the handle, providing balance and durability that you can trust in the field. The handle itself is crafted from genuine stag antler, each piece unique with natural texture and coloration, separated by brass spacers that add both strength and a touch of rustic elegance. At the end of the handle, a lanyard hole lets you secure the knife with a cord, keeping it close at hand during your outdoor pursuits.
Accompanying the knife is a hand-tooled black leather sheath, made to protect the blade and offer a convenient belt loop and snap closure for safe carry. This combination of materials and craftsmanship makes the knife not only a reliable tool but also a connection to the traditions of bladesmiths who have worked steel and stag for centuries.
