Whether you're field dressing big game or working on bushcraft tasks, the blade’s sharp edge and corrosion-resistant stainless steel ensure reliable performance in the field. The satin finish not only enhances the blade's durability but also adds a clean, polished look that reflects the knife’s quality.
The full tang construction provides strength and balance from tip to pommel, giving you maximum control and durability. The handle is a standout feature, made of genuine grooved and torched bone, carved and flamed to highlight the natural textures and patterns of the material. This handle doesn’t just look incredible—it offers a secure, tactile grip that’s both comfortable and functional during extended use. The grooves provide added slip resistance, while the torched finish adds a rustic, handcrafted appearance that makes every knife unique.
Accenting the handle are classic black and white spacers, a nickel silver guard and pommel, and a brass stopper, all working together to enhance both the aesthetics and ergonomics of the knife. These small details contribute to a vintage look while reinforcing the handle’s structure and balance. The brass and nickel silver elements catch the light with an elegant gleam, offering contrast to the earthy tone of the bone for a refined yet rugged finish.
The knife measures 9.75 inches overall, providing enough size for heavy-duty cutting tasks while remaining compact enough for belt carry. Speaking of carry, this fixed blade includes a brown leather sheath with a secure belt loop, giving you a classic, durable way to transport the knife in the field. The sheath’s stitched leather and fitted shape hold the blade firmly in place, ensuring it’s always ready when you need it.
