Hunting Knife with Polished Wood and Antler Handle

Classic Fixed Blade Hunting Knife with Polished Wood and Antler Handle

A Legacy of the Hunting and Woodcraft Tradition

The combination of wood and bone or horn on tool handles has accompanied humanity since prehistoric times. However, this style reached its visual peak during the Renaissance and Baroque periods with magnificent hunting daggers. While the steel of that era required meticulous care to prevent rusting, this model is equipped with a blade made of modern 420 stainless steel. This provides the knife with excellent corrosion protection, which you will appreciate especially in damp forest environments. The traditional look of the handle is elegantly complemented by brass pins and a practical lanyard hole.

Practical Application and Proper Knife Care

With an ideal overall length of 205 mm (8.07 in) and a weight of 175 g (6.17 oz), this knife represents the perfect compromise between agility and strength. It fits excellently in the hand and is suited for common outdoor chores, cutting ropes, and preparing food. Because the handle is made of natural wood and antler, the knife is entirely unsuitable for the dishwasher. Exposure to extreme temperatures or prolonged soaking would lead to cracking and ruin the materials. Always wash the knife by hand only, dry the blade thoroughly after work, and store it in the brown leather sheath. We recommend occasionally treating the wood and antler with linseed oil or beeswax to help the materials retain their flexibility and beautiful colour.

Safety Warnings

This tool features a sharp blade and is intended exclusively for cutting and utility tasks in the outdoors and at home. For safety reasons, we strongly warn you that this is not a weapon intended for historical contact fencing, martial arts training, or any form of combat. Never use the knife as a pry bar, chisel, or screwdriver. Disproportionate lateral pressure could cause the blade to break, leading to nasty injuries.

To maintain the perfect edge on your new knife, we highly recommend purchasing a quality pocket whetstone that you can easily pack in your rucksack.
