The Avery Knifeworks Bird & Trout Knife is a compact, precision-driven small-game and fishing blade designed for clean, controlled work in the outdoors. Built for hunters and anglers who prioritize accuracy and finesse, it’s made for detailed tasks like fish processing, small-game field dressing, and fine trimming where control and edge response matter more than raw force.
It features a 3.25-inch straight back blade forged from premium MagnaCut stainless tool steel, delivering outstanding edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance in wet, cold, and unpredictable field conditions. The hand-forged finish gives each blade a rugged, individual character while reinforcing its practical, hard-use design. Full tang construction runs the length of the knife, adding strength and stability while keeping the profile light, balanced, and easy to maneuver during precise work.
A Red Resin and Maple Burlwood handle gives this version a bold, fiery presence in hand. The deep red resin flows through the warm, natural grain of the maple burl, creating a dynamic contrast that resembles molten lava moving through stone. The layered pattern feels alive with movement, while the stabilized construction provides a secure, comfortable grip suited for long sessions in the field or at the cleaning station.
Each Bird & Trout Knife is handmade in the USA by knifemaker Raleigh Avery, recognized from the History Channel series Mountain Men. His focus on practical craftsmanship and field-ready performance is evident in every detail, from blade geometry to handle shaping. A molded Kydex sheath is included for secure carry and quick, reliable access when it counts.
