Description

 

This design is over 100 years old ~ the knowledge and skill to produce this version has been fifty years in the making! 

Bob and I started with a classic design and combined that with Bob’s style and knowledge to bring it to market as an Exclusive for Fort Henry Custom Knives

 Fort Henry Custom Knives


This knife was originally purchased directly from me several years ago and has not been used, carried or sharpened 

This knife is one of a RARE FEW Classics to be marked with Bob’s “Classics by Bob Dozier” Maker’s Mark.  This is a knife will be at the top of any Dozier collection due to it’s rarity and condition! 

In Bob’s Classic line, the hidden tang is a full one-half inch wide and is completely heat-treated to gain the maximum properties that can be had from the steel. A rectangular slot is machined in the handle to perfectly fit the tang. This eliminates the need to fill up the extra space with epoxy. Then just the necessary amount of epoxy, along with a brass nut secure the handle for a lifetime of hard use


This knife has a Traditional Ironwood handle with Brass & G-10 Spacers.  The Brass
Guard is expertly Soldered so no moisture has access to inside the handle. 

The blade is approx  1″ wide with a Deep Custom Clip near the tip to reduce the forward weight and a Very Rare Full Height Flat Grind!  Of all the Classic Models that Bob made for me, this is one of only Two Knives that were Flat Ground! 

Serial Number 1 of only 10 ever produced.  

The Sambar Stag Butt cap on this knife has dark Gnarly grain and it has been comfortably sculpted to rest against the back of the palm.  This handle will stand up to years of use and with proper care will last a lifetime. 

   Complete with a wet molded Right Hand Leather Belt Sheath ~ this knife fits so securely, you cannot even shake it out! 

Ready for the your next trek into the Wilderness.
