The Samuel Riner Custom Knives Pellissippi is a handcrafted fixed blade built for those who appreciate rugged capability, timeless design, and the precision of American custom knifemaking. Designed as a versatile field companion, this compact knife delivers the strength and reliability needed for outdoor adventures, camp chores, hunting tasks, and everyday utility work. Every detail reflects Samuel Riner's commitment to creating high-quality knives that are built to perform and made to last.
The 2.6-inch 80CRV2 carbon steel blade offers outstanding toughness, dependable edge performance, 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 and camp chores to everyday cutting tasks, the Pellissippi provides the control and confidence needed to get the job done.
Midnight Micarta handle scales give the Pellissippi 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 handle material for knives built to handle tough conditions. The dark tones of the Midnight Micarta complement the blade's classic finish, creating a refined look that balances practical performance with custom-knife 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 helps reduce unnecessary weight, improves balance, and creates a comfortable, lively feel in the hand without sacrificing the strength and durability expected from a fixed blade.
Measuring 6.5 inches overall with a 2.6-inch blade, the Pellissippi offers a compact profile that makes it especially convenient for everyday carry and outdoor use. Its smaller footprint doesn't take away from its capability, making it an excellent choice when you want a dependable fixed blade that's easy to carry and ready whenever you need it.
The Pellissippi comes with a special detailed Kydex blade cover featuring a printed leaf design. The durable Kydex construction provides a secure protective covering for the blade, while the detailed leaf pattern adds a distinctive outdoors-inspired touch that sets this custom knife apart. It's a practical carry solution with enough visual character to make the Pellissippi stand out in any collection.
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.
