The 80CRV2 carbon steel blade offers outstanding toughness, dependable edge retention, and the durability required for demanding cutting tasks. Its classic finish provides a clean, traditional appearance that highlights the natural character of the steel while maintaining the rugged appeal expected from a hardworking fixed blade. From detailed carving to heavier outdoor chores, the Pellissippi is designed to provide confidence and control in every cut.
Midnight Micarta handle scales give this knife a sleek, understated appearance while providing a secure and comfortable grip. Micarta is known for its exceptional durability, moisture resistance, and reliable traction, making it a trusted material for knives built to handle tough conditions. The dark tones of the Midnight Micarta complement the classic blade finish, creating a refined look that balances performance and style.
The tapered tang construction showcases the craftsmanship behind every Samuel Riner knife. By gradually reducing the thickness of the tang toward the end of the handle, this traditional technique reduces unnecessary weight, improves balance, and creates a more comfortable feel in hand without sacrificing strength or durability.
Every Pellissippi is proudly handmade in the USA by custom knifemaker Samuel Riner, ensuring each knife reflects the precision, individuality, and attention to detail that only a handcrafted American blade can offer.
