This is a fixed-blade utility knife for camping and bushcraft. The blade and the integrated bolster are hand-forged from high-carbon Damascus steel. Folding the steel gives the blade a tight, high-contrast ripple pattern.
The blade has a straight-edge utility profile, also described as a modified cleaver. It is used for slicing, chopping and controlled cuts on campsite tasks such as cutting cordage, preparing kindling and food prep. It also suits woodworking and carving.
The handle is polished black with a spiraled, fluted grip. A brass spacer, solid brass pins and a decorative mosaic pin near the pommel complete the handle.
