 Fort Henry Custom Knives is proud to be a Decade Dealer for Bob Dozier 

For more than 40 years, Bob has continued to try to improve on his work.  This knife represents that evolution.  This is Bob’s Sisu Model Drop Point Hunter.

 The special Blade on this Dozier Classic Clip Point is just over 3/16″ thick ~ Hand Crafted by the “Dr. of D2”.  Dozier’s Legendary D2 Cutting Ability makes even the most upscale knife a superb cutter. 

Below is a picture of an Heirloom piece that Bob made years ago ~ he recently sent it to me so that I can show my Customers actually just how Strong his Hidden Tang knife designs are built! 

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 Blind Bolt secure the handle for a lifetime of hard use. 

Through Decades of Experience Bob has refined the Contouring of his handles to be both Secure and Comfortable.  This example features Brass Spacers flanked by Red Micarta spacers.   Bob Deeply Custom Contoured this Handle to create an incredibly Comfortable and Secure Full Sized Grip. 

   Gorgeous Desert Ironwood on the handle has incredible Grain and Rich natural color.  The Brass Guard is Expertly Silver Soldered so no moisture has access to inside the handle (this is a difficult process and most Makers do not even attempt this step any longer).

    This Rare Custom adds all the features of Bob’s upscale Classic line ~ built to last a Lifetime. 

Bob spent a week with the late Bob Loveless learning to make and improve on his Leather Sheaths. This knife showcases Bob’s Custom Wet Molded, Shoulder Hide Right Hand Leather Sheath. The Sheath is made with an Internal Welt that Locks onto the Guard ~ this will not allow the knife to accidentally Fall Out ~ even if turned upside down and shaken!

Previously Owned but never used, carried or sharpened   

A very limited number of Dozier Sisu Models have been made to date.
