Herb Derr – NEW San Mai Damascus Hunter

Description

HERB DERR

  I have been a Dealer for Herb Derr Custom knives for over a decade, long before I had a website I sold Herb’s knives at Knife Shows and Gun Shows, often to repeat Customers.  Herb’s pieces are sole authorship ~ he forges his own Damascus, grinds his own blades, makes his own Leather Sheaths and still finds time to Teach courses at a Community College on how to make Damascus.  

Fort Henry Custom Knives is proud to be a direct Dealer for Herb Derr 

  Direct from the Maker from the recent Blade Show 2014

~ This is a Very Rare Feather Pattern / San Mai Damascus Blade ~    

Herb makes very few Bars of Feather Pattern Damascus each year.  this knife is extremely rare in that I have NEVER had a Feather Pattern San Mai Blade from Herb before! 

 Herb’s Feather Damascus is very difficult to forge, it is over 2,500 layers thick and then Herb had to Forge the Feather Pattern steel Onto a 52100 Core! 

   The Thick Stabilized Walrus Jaw handle has rich color and beautiful natural grain.  It is flanked by Nickel Silver Spacers and a Stabilized Box Elder Burl spacer for color. 

Herb also added some Custom Filework to the Spine of the Blade which will do Double Duty as Thumb Ridges as well.

This is a unique and large Hunter that the new Owner is sure to treasure! 

  The Heavy Leather RH Belt sheath has an exotic Ostrich Skin inlay along with Custom Tooling around the mouth of the Sheath. Nice snug fit and a wonderful compliment to the knife. 

Don’t miss out on this one.
