It is one of the harder patterns to forge cleanly, and it is why this knife looks like it costs more than it does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery billet etches differently. The pattern on your knife exists nowhere else the photographs show the style, not the exact piece you will receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe blade\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 4.5-inch drop point, hardened to 55–58 HRC. That range is the working sweet spot for a hunting blade: hard enough to hold an edge through a full field dressing, soft enough to bring back on a pocket stone without power tools or diamond plates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGround with a full belly for skinning sweeps and a controllable point for the close work around joints and hide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSolid rosewood handle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot laminate, not dyed — solid rosewood, with the grain running clean through the scales. Dense and naturally oily, so it handles wet work without swelling, and it darkens and polishes with years of handling rather than wearing out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecured with two brass mosaic pins and finished with a brass-lined lanyard hole at the butt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCross pouch sheath\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-stitched leather with contrast orange stitching, moulded to this blade so it holds firmly without a strap.
