Here is a very unique, Hand Forged Full Size Hunter from Steve. I chose this knife for its wonderfully artistic appearance and exemplary value.
The design is very comfortable in the hand and it has an immediately evident artisan made appearance. Steve Forged the Blade from High Carbon 1095 Steel and gave the Flats a Flint Knapped type of texture. The Cutting Edge bevel is Convex so it will Strop very easily.
The Hand Carved Ebony Handle is generous in size and Steve chose to carve it in a 3D “Hear No Evil” Monkey shape.
The Wood of the handle has beautiful grain and character and the Individual Carving marks enhance the appearance when viewed up close.
The Bolster is Stabilized Black Palm Wood and it matches the Ebony very well.
Steve’s work offers a rustic, Hand Made package in a very affordable price range.
Provided with a thick Right Hand Leather Belt Sheath with a Pewter Hippo Head inlay and a Carved African Continent shape on the front. The knife fits deep and securely, no chance of the knife accidentally falling out.
A unique package where every aspect has the “Hand Made” appeal.
