Handmade Craftsmanship

Every knife that leaves our workshop is shaped, ground, and finished by hand. The stag horn handles are individually fitted and shaped to the tang — not mass-produced, not machine-cut. The blade is hand-ground to a consistent bevel and mirror-polished to a finish that reflects the care put into every step. This is the kind of craftsmanship that used to be common and is now rare.

Knife Care Instructions

• Wipe the blade dry after each use — high carbon steel can develop surface rust if left wet
• Apply a light coat of mineral oil or blade oil to the blade after cleaning
• Store in the leather sheath in a dry environment
• Sharpen with a whetstone using a consistent 20-degree angle
• Condition the leather sheath periodically with leather conditioner
• Never put in a dishwasher — hand wash only with mild soap

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it come with a sheath?
