Clip Point Hunter - Quilted Maple
This full sized Hunter features a hidden tang and a beautiful quilted maple handle. This is a beautiful knife with a very unique look whether you are going to town or going to the woods.
This knife, just like all other knives out of my shop, is completely made by me, from raw materials, start to finish. The blade on this hunter is hand forged high carbon 80CRV2 steel. This knife has a clip point blade that is very wide spine to make it extremely rugged for any outdoor activity and will be fantastic for skinning and processing wild game. The blade is 4-1/2” long while the overall length is 9”. This knife also comes with a hand tooled and hand sewn full grain leather sheath that adds to its very distinctive look.
The new trend in the custom knife maker world seems to be to have a steel supplier water jet out a blade blank and then send it to someone else to grind and heat treat. By the time the (maker) receives the blade the only thing remaining to to in order to finish the knife is to add the makers mark and install the pre-shaped handle scales. I personally don’t believe in (making) knives this way. I believe that every step of the process of making the knives I build and sell should be done one hundred percent by me in order to get my makers makers mark. You don’t have to agree with me but I simply believe that if a customer is buying a knife from a custom maker, it should be a knife that is hand forged and hand finished by the maker.
