Forged Hunter in 1084 w/ Oosik

This Hunter is forged from 1084 high carbon steel with a flat ground blade, a long clip point with a slight swedge on the spine. It has been meticulously hand sanded for a uniform crisp finish on the plunge lines, ricasso, and blade. The handle is constructed with a guard that has been shaped and finished very well to complement the transition from the blade to the handle.

The material used for the handle is Oosik. Oosik is a term used by Alaskan natives to describe the baculum of a walrus, seal, and other mammals. Oosik is a very dense bone and makes excellent knife handles. The pommel of the handle has been adorned with a brushed piece of steel to complete and finish the handle. It has a natural curve to it for a comfortable fit and feel in the hand, lending itself to be an easy carry and full time user. Hidden tang. 4 1/8 inch blade, 8 7/16 inches overall. 1084 high carbon steel. Forged. Flat ground.

It comes with a right-handed brown leather sheath with white stitching made by Texas Saddle Maker Bob Bobbit.
