Blade Length and Purpose

This custom-made hunting knife measures 13 inches overall with a 9 inch full tang blade forged from 1095 and 15N20 high and low carbon steel. The twisted pattern Damascus steel is hardened to 56 to 58 HRC for edge retention in field dressing and kitchen tasks. The 4 inch camel bone handle with brass bolster provides a secure grip for outdoor use.

Maintenance and Durability

High carbon Damascus steel requires regular care to prevent corrosion. The blade should be cleaned after each use and coated with cooking oil before storage. Leather sheaths must be avoided for long-term storage as absorbed moisture promotes rust. Surface rust can be removed with WD40 if it appears.

Age Restriction and Safety

This knife is intended for legal use only by responsible buyers aged 18 or older. The blade arrives extremely sharp and demands careful handling to avoid injury. No sheath is included so users must provide their own protective storage solution.

Questions about this item

How do I fit the camel bone handle onto the full tang blade, and what step do people skip?

The 4 inch camel bone scales slide onto the tang and are secured with brass pins through the bolster; the step most skip is peening the pin ends flush so the handle cannot shift under heavy use.

What maintenance will the 1095 and 15N20 Damascus blade need over time?

After each use wash the blade, dry it immediately, then coat it with a thin film of cooking oil; never leave it in a leather sheath because absorbed moisture causes rust on the high carbon steel.

At what hardness does the 56 to 58 HRC edge start to roll during prolonged cutting?

The edge holds well up to 58 HRC, but sustained heavy chopping on bone or frozen food will cause microscopic rolling before the steel itself chips.
