This is my rendition of the classic "Nessmuk" style knife that originated in the 1800's and has now become one of the most popular and copied Bushcraft knife patterns.
A very substantial knife with a blade length of approximately 5 1/4" handle is 4 3/4" with an overall length of 10 inches. The blade is 5/32" thick to start and tapered to the cutting tip. File work jimping has been added to the blade for a solid thumb purchase during heavy cutting and is heavy enough to do batoning.
Shown in my gunstock tiger maple which is a darker shade than my standard color. This is the classic dark color of many flintlock and muzzleloader firearms of the frontier time in America.
Also shown in reclaimed white oak Vermont barn wood. Available in several other handle woods as well.
Made from 5160 high carbon steel that will hold an edge and is known for its toughness and durability.
The sheath is made from 8/9 oz leather that is hand stitched with a full welt, waterproofed, signed and dated. This knife is made for outdoor use, whether it is field dressing game or chores around the camp.
I make all of my knives and sheaths right here in my Vermont blacksmith and woodworking shop since 1990.
Each blade is forged from a single piece of high carbon steel. Distinctive forging marks are left to show these knives are handmade and have a natural aged appearance.
All of my knives come with a lifetime warranty. If there is ever a problem I will repair or replace it for free. This does not include abuse or neglect of the knife, or other use than what it is intended for.
