The JANTZ Supplies Green River Carbon Steel Blade Blank is built for makers who appreciate classic blade design, dependable cutting performance, and the freedom to craft a truly custom knife from the ground up. Inspired by the time-tested Green River pattern that has earned its reputation through generations of field use, this blade blank delivers the rugged utility and proven profile needed for a serious working knife.
Featuring a 4" drop point blade crafted from high carbon stainless steel, this blank offers an excellent balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The drop point profile remains one of the most versatile blade shapes ever developed, offering a controllable point for precision work while maintaining enough belly for slicing, skinning, and general utility tasks. Whether your finished project is destined for hunting, camp use, bushcraft tasks, or everyday carry, this blade shape provides the kind of all-around performance serious users demand.
The high carbon stainless steel construction gives makers the best of both worlds. It provides the strength and edge-holding capabilities associated with high carbon steel while offering improved resistance to staining and corrosion compared to traditional carbon-only formulations. This makes it an ideal material for builders creating knives intended for regular field use where reliability matters.
Built with full tang construction, this blade blank is designed for maximum durability and structural integrity. The tang extends the full length of the handle, creating a solid foundation for custom scales while ensuring the finished knife can handle hard use with confidence. Full tang designs are favored by serious makers and users alike for their strength, balance, and long-term dependability.
At 8" overall, this blade blank offers a practical size that’s large enough for demanding cutting tasks while remaining compact enough for comfortable carry and control. It’s well suited for a wide range of custom handle materials including hardwoods, micarta, G-10, antler, bone, or stabilized exotic woods, allowing makers to create anything from a rugged field knife to an elegant collector-grade build.
What makes a blade blank like this especially appealing is the opportunity for complete customization. Every handle contour, scale material, finish detail, and hardware choice is yours to define, resulting in a finished knife that reflects your craftsmanship and purpose.
The JANTZ Supplies Green River Carbon Steel Blade Blank offers a trusted design, rugged construction, and exceptional versatility for makers who want to build a knife that performs as well in the field as it looks on display.
