This is the classic "Frontier Trade Knife" that was so popular back in the eighteen hundreds.... the mountain man and buffalo hunter era in America.
This knife is built to work, simple and heavy duty. Outstanding control in the hand for either a hunting knife, bushcraft or camp knife.
It has a drop point blade that is 5 3/8" long and 1 9/16" deep 5/32" thick tapered blade, with an overall length of approximately 10"
The handle is reclaimed antique chestnut wood. That came from a several hundred year old barn in Charlotte Vermont. This wood is from old growth trees with incredible character and history. A special wood that I have a very limited supply of.
I HAND FORGED THESE AS ALWAYS IN MY VERMONT BLACKSMITH SHOP. MADE FROM HIGH CARBON 5160 STEEL. THIS STEEL IN INCREDIBLY TOUGH AND TAKES AND HOLDS AN OUTSTANDING EDGE.
THE SHEATH IS MADE FROM 9 OZ LEATHER THAT IS DOUBLE STITCHED WITH A FULL WELT AND COPPER SADDLE MAKERS RIVETS AT ALL CRITICAL STRESS POINTS. WATERPROOFED, SIGNED AND DATED.
DISTINCTIVE FORGING MARKS ARE LEFT TO SHOW THESE KNIVES ARE HANDMADE AND HAVE A NATURAL AGED APPEARANCE.
THE BLADE HAS A DARK AGED FINISH WHICH IS ALSO ACID ETCHED TO HELP PREVENT RUSTING AND CORROSION.
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.
