The Circular Damascus Blade
The blade is forged from pattern-welded Damascus steel featuring a rare circular and eye-shaped pattern — a more complex and visually striking Damascus style compared to standard wavy or ladder patterns. The etched dark finish reveals the full depth of the circular pattern across the blade flat, while the cutting edge is bright polished for maximum sharpness. The drop point skinner profile is purpose-built for field dressing and skinning big game. For more handmade Damascus knives, explore our Hunting Knives Collection.
The Blue Resin Pine Cone Handle
The full handle is crafted from a stabilized pine cone set in deep blue resin — a natural pine cone preserved and cast in resin, creating a handle that is both structurally stable and visually extraordinary. The natural pine cone scales remain visible through the blue resin, giving each handle a unique organic texture and pattern. Two brass pins secure the handle to the full tang. No guard — the blade flows directly into the handle for a clean, streamlined profile. No two handles are identical due to the natural variation in pine cone structure.
The Two-Tone Leather Sheath
The sheath features a two-tone design — a tan/brown leather front panel paired with a dark brown/black back panel with a floral and vine embossed pattern. A brass snap button secures the knife. Gold/yellow stitching runs along all edges. A belt loop on the back allows for easy field carry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a stabilized pine cone handle?
A: A stabilized pine cone handle is made by taking a natural pine cone and impregnating it with resin under vacuum pressure — in this case, deep blue resin. The process preserves the natural pine cone structure and scales while adding color, stability, and durability. The result is a handle that is both structurally strong and visually unique — no two are identical.
Q: What makes the circular Damascus pattern different from regular Damascus?
A: Standard Damascus patterns are created by folding and drawing out the steel in one direction, producing wavy or ladder patterns. Circular and eye-shaped Damascus patterns are created by manipulating the steel in multiple directions — producing swirling circular and eye-shaped patterns. It is a more complex process that results in a more visually striking blade.
Q: Is this a good knife for field dressing deer?
A: Yes. The drop point skinner profile with a wide belly is one of the most effective blade shapes for field dressing and skinning deer and big game. The full tang construction ensures strength and durability for field use.
Q: Does it come with a sheath?
A: Yes. Every knife includes a premium two-tone leather sheath with a floral and vine embossed pattern, brass snap button closure, gold stitching, and a belt loop for field carry.
