Description

ZUBENG FORGE

 Zubeng Forge is a Smithy in the heart of China, Master Rich Chen uses an Ancient formula to create TRUE Tamahagane steel for his swords and knives.  Making Tamahagane steel is a long and labor intensive process which starts with select Iron Sand and other Natural materials that are found in only a few places in the world.

Here is a video of Master Chen making Tamahagane for his Sword

                 

  Fort Henry Custom Knives is proud to offer knives from Master Rich Chen of Zubeng Forge


 This Hand Made knife is small and Light Weight with a Fully Convex ~ Razor Sharp blade that would work beautifully as a Bird N Trout, General Carry or Small Game Hunting knife. 

Hand Forged from the same hand made Tamahagane steel that Master Chen uses for his High End Chinese swords!  Master Chen brought me a piece of the actual Tamahagane Steel as it appears “In Process” during Forging

A Differential Clay Heat Treat leaves an intricate flowing Hamon which visibly defines the Hardness Zones of the blade ~ from the Softer spine to the Hard Cutting Edge.  

This type of Hamon is clearly visible in all true Tamahagane pieces.

The handle is nicely contoured ~ this is a small, Full Tang knife with a Full Grip sized handle, easily carried and it will fit most any grip. 

This elegant Hand Forged blade has been given rich Cocobolo handle scales that have wonderful natural grain, the Small Brass Pins add an nice touch.

  This knife comes complete with a thick Custom Leather Pocket sheath.  Hand Stitched and very secure. 

A beautiful blade with the Sweat and Soul of the Maker in the Steel. 

Previously owned, used and lightly Stropped ~ As Is ~ No Returns of Warranty

This is the Actual Knife you will Receive
