Herb Derr – Fossilized Walrus Jaw Skinner

Description

HERB DERR

Fort Henry Custom Knives has been a proud Dealer for Herb Derr for more than a Decade

Direct from the Maker from the recent NYCKS 2013 

Here is a wonderful EDC sized Hunter from Herb ~ well balanced and wonderfully proportionate, great materials and extremely comfortable.  

I hand picked this knife from Herb’s table due to the Ancient Fossilized Walrus Jaw handle and the Exotic Sheath Inlay. 

The knife has THE BEST example of Herb’s Rare Ladder Back High Contrast Damascus that I have seen!  It is over 2,500 layers thick. It has a unique Fileworked spine and an amazing blending of rare natural materials. 

The handle is made from Fossilized Walrus Jaw retrieved from the Frigid Northern waters, it is contoured into a smooth oblong shape with a flare at the butt which makes is extremely comfortable to hold.  

This particular example is amazing in that the Ancient Walrus Tooth remnants are still in the handle and clearly visible. 

 The handle is flanked by Nickel Silver Spacers and a dark Stabilized Maple Burl spacer for color.  

    The Leather sheath has an inlay that I have NEVER seen Herb use before ~ South American Boa Constrictor Skin!    

Don’t miss out on this Special one of a kind knife!
