A traditional frontier knife forged for real camp and field work.
Trade knives earned their place on the early American frontier because they could skin game, prepare food, handle camp chores, and remain easy to carry. This modern handcrafted version continues that tradition, pairing a North Carolina-forged blade with a fitted leather sheath made in Alabama.
1095 high-carbon steel
5.25-inch blade and 4.25-inch handle
90-degree spine
Oak handle scales with faded-burn finish
Brass pins and forged bevel
Optional fitted 8-ounce full-grain leather sheath
Hand-stitched sheath with finished edges and versatile leather carry lace
Made to order: Each knife is forged individually, then sent to the leather shop for its fitted sheath. Allow approximately one month, depending on current order volume. Natural handmade variations mean no two sets are exactly alike.
