SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Hen & Rooster Stag Hawkbill is a hardworking traditional folder built for control, precision, and undeniable character. Compact at 4 inches closed and weighing just 2.28 ounces, it slips easily into a pocket while delivering the cutting power and grip you need when the job demands accuracy.
At its core is a 3.12-inch stainless steel hawkbill blade, purpose-built for slicing, pull cuts, and detailed work. The curved profile excels at tasks like trimming, shaping, and controlled draw cuts, giving you leverage that straight-edge blades can’t match. A convenient thumb hole allows smooth, confident one-handed opening, while the half stop adds an extra measure of safety and control during deployment and closing. The stainless construction resists corrosion and keeps maintenance straightforward, making it a dependable companion for daily carry.
The handle is crafted from genuine deer stag, each piece naturally unique with rugged texture and rich, organic color variation. It’s fitted with brass pins and liners for durability, complemented by polished nickel silver bolsters that add strength and a refined edge. An antique brass Hen & Rooster shield is proudly inlaid into the scale, a subtle but unmistakable mark of heritage and craftsmanship.
Balanced in hand and secure in grip, this hawkbill is equally at home in the field, the workshop, or the garden. It’s a knife that feels traditional yet practical, built for those who appreciate natural materials and purposeful design.
