Traditional Damascus Hunter | Bookmatched Black Ash Burl Handle

$399.99

Classic craftsmanship meets modern bladesmithing.

This one-of-a-kind hunting knife features a hand-forged Damascus blade by Iron Beak Forge of Idaho, showcasing the flowing patterns that have made Damascus steel prized by outdoorsmen and collectors alike.

What truly sets this piece apart is the handle. Crafted using traditional woodworking techniques, the scales combine black dyed Black Ash burl and natural Black Ash burl, separated by striking Padauk veneer accents. The materials were carefully arranged to mirror one another along the spine, creating a seamless, symmetrical appearance that rewards a closer look.

The result is a knife that feels both timeless and distinctive. Built to perform in the field while showcasing the beauty that only natural wood can provide.

Every line, color transition, and grain pattern works together to create a piece that cannot be replicated.
