Hen & Rooster 3 Blade Stockman Michael Prater Red Handle HR313MPRS

The Hen & Rooster 3 Blade Stockman Michael Prater Red Handle is a refined take on the classic stockman pattern, built for everyday reliability and collector appeal. This traditional folding knife carries the unmistakable craftsmanship Hen & Rooster is known for, elevated by the unique artistry of Michael Prater. Whether it's riding in your pocket for daily tasks or resting in a display case, this stockman is designed to impress without compromising utility.

At 4 inches closed, the knife strikes the perfect balance between pocket-friendly size and substantial hand feel. It features a trio of dependable blades: a clip point, a spey, and a sheepsfoot—each made from stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish. The clip point blade bears a detailed blade etching that adds character without sacrificing function. All three blades open via traditional nail nicks and operate on a non-locking slipjoint mechanism, keeping to the time-tested roots of classic American pocketknives.

The standout feature of this knife is the custom red handle, crafted by renowned knifemaker and artist Michael Prater. The vibrant color and swirling depth of the material give the handle a fiery, gemstone-like appearance that contrasts beautifully with the steel blades. Nickel silver bolsters and an antique shield inlay complete the design, offering both strength and vintage appeal.

While the design leans into elegance, the knife is built to work. Each blade type serves a different purpose: the clip point excels at detail cutting, the spey blade is perfect for slicing, and the sheepsfoot delivers controlled cuts with a straight edge that resists snagging. Whether you're trimming cord, opening packaging, or taking on light outdoor tasks, this knife handles it all with style.

Michael Prater's influence is evident in the handle's bold aesthetics, but the knife itself remains rooted in Hen & Rooster’s tradition of quality, function, and timeless design. It's a working knife made for those who appreciate a touch of artistry in their tools. Order it today from SMKW!
