A.G. Russell Knives

The features of the Buck Paklite knife were designed specifically with hunters in mind. Lightweight, sturdy and effective this skinning knife can be carried alone or used to compliment any hunting knife. The skeletal steel frame is heavy-duty, yet lightweight for easy carry.

In Spanish, a pitón is the top of an animal's horn or a sprig or shoot. In English, it is a peg or spike. Either definition seems somehow appropriate for Boker's El' Pitón. The handle is a tine tip from the antler of the European Red Deer and the blade shape contributes to the overall impression of a peg or spike.

This was Randall's original drop point blade. After more than 60 years it is still one of their most usable knives. Designed by Tommy Thompson, noted Alaskan guide, in 1952 for big game skinning, with a point that is "dropped" below the top of the blade to prevent cutting too deeply through the skin when used point first.

Gaétan Beauchamp is extremely talented and is one of the most popular knifemakers to be featured in the A.G. Russell™ and Cutting Edge® catalogs. He sold his first knife in 1992 and we first featured his knives in 2001. He is not only a highly technically skilled artist, but an extremely creative one as well. His specialty is unusual and rare handle material on well-made, dependable and attractive knives.

While there are many different handle materials available, we have chosen three different ones (Ebony, Giraffe Bone and Pink Ivory), each with mosaic pins of stainless and copper to complement the color of the handle scales. The ebony is an exotic wood from Mozambique, the pink ivory is a dense wood from South Africa with a naturally occurring pink color and the Giraffe Bone is in its natural color. It has been stabilized but not dyed.

The Alaskan Skinner was my favorite Randall pattern for many years. It is the first Randall I bought when I had $35 to spare. After more than 60 years it is still one of their most usable knives.

The Wrangler® Ozark Hunter is a fine using knife, not just a knife to hang on the belt. Its traditional style, including an antiqued, hammered finish, harkens back to a time when a knife was more than a collector's piece, it was a lifeline.

Böker® of Germany, a 100+ year old knife company, and Bob Dozier, one of America's foremost makers of handmade knives, have teamed up to produce several of Bob's designs. One of those designs is the Anchorage Pro Skinner with green Micarta®.

This Wrangler® Hunter is a traditional style knife with a full tang, but the handle is certainly not traditional. A snakeskin camo pattern has been applied over a molded plastic handle creating a surface that feels "soft".

T. C. Roberts has an excellent eye for materials. He has chosen very high quality India stag carvers for the handles, Chad Nichols Stainless Raindrop Damascus for the blades and he has hand cast the hilts and butt plates from bronze.

The term San Mai comes from Japan and simply means "three layers". The San Mai steels that began appearing in the American knife market the past few years have all come from Japan. Laminated steels, such as San Mai, were developed to allow a very hard center core for the best cutting and edge holding and a blade that is tough enough to not snap under normal pressure. The soft sides support the hard core and add strength.

The original Gut Hook has been very popular with hunters because it solved a problem: it made dressing large game much easier. David Bloch, owner and founder of Outdoor Edge, has taken the gut hook concept and improved it.

That knife was a hunter with Ram's Horn handle scales. Customer interest has been high but Keith has done a great job of keeping up with demand.

This version of the knife that Northwest Arkansas knifemaker Keith Murr calls the Companion is small and unobtrusive but provides all the cutting edge you need for most tasks.

I have been drawing pictures of knives for all of seventy years, but it was not until the late 1960s when Robert W. (Bob) Loveless, the World's premier designer of hunting and combat knives, taught me how he developed a knife design that I began to design instead of just drawing pictures.

What you are buying for these terrific prices are knives made the "old fashioned way", with good solid 440A equivalent stainless blades hardened to 55-57 Rc. and golden brown jigged Autumn Bone handle scales with the Kissing Crane™ logo inlay.

Home processing is easy if you have the right tools. Outdoor Edge's new Butcher-Lite is a lightweight 8-piece field kit of the highest quality.

Each set combines a hunters two most important field tools, a razor sharp skinning knife with an aggressive wood/bone saw all in a compact belt sheath. Stainless steel AUS-8 blades are precision ground shaving sharp to ensure superior edge retention and ease of sharpening.

The original Gut Hook has been very popular with hunters because it solved a problem: it made dressing large game much easier. David Bloch, owner and founder of Outdoor Edge, has taken the gut hook concept and improved it. Instead of a hook design with a sharp point, the gutting blade has a blunted end with a sharp blade that curves inward.

This is a professional game knife. With its skinning curve and the sharply pointed tip, it can do every job needed in a deer camp. The back of the blade is notched to grip the thumb. 3-1/2" blade of O1 high carbon tool steel, 3/4" wide of 3/16" stock. 4 to 4-1/2" genuine India stag handle,brass hilt. Weighs 3.5 to 4.5 oz and includes a fine leather sheath with stone.

Queen® Cutlery dates back to 1890 and is known for quality knives that continue to be produced using many of the same hand processes used many years ago. Over the years, you have seen their folders on the pages of our catalog, but no Queen fixed blades.

The Little Fin is one of six classically styled leather handled hunters. It has been a popular part of the KA-BAR product line since the early 1900's. Its classic straight point blade shape had made this a favorite among many hunters.

This Hunter is dressy enough to give as a gift and very practical for field use. The blade measures 3-1/8" x 5/8" and is made from tough DIN 1.4116 stainless steel at 55-57 Rc. The stacked leather handle is slightly belled out in the middle and has finger grips to fit well in hand.

The Skinner is one of six classically styled leather handled fixed blades and has been part of the KA-BAR product lines since the early 1900's. The blade measures 4-3/8" and measures 15/16" at its widest point.

Released in 2007, the leather handled hunter with guthook is an addition to the classically styled line of 6 stacked leather handled fixed blades. The blade measures 3-1/4" and measures 1-3/8" at its widest point near the guthook.

Released in 2007, The Marine Hunter is a reproduction of a knife offered by KA-BAR over 30 years ago and is a great addition to the classically styled line of stacked leather handled fixed blades.

The blade measuring 6-7/8" and measures 1-1/4" at its widest point is the largest in this line. It is made from tough DIN 1.4116 stainless steel at 55-57 Rc. Finger grips on the stacked leather handle ensure a firm grip.

3-1/2" upswept skinner blade. Measures 7-3/4" overall and weighs 4.2 oz. Suggested retail is $55.99.

One of Kershaw's most popular hunting knives is now available in safety orange. The Antelope Hunter II Orange features a robust, 3-5/8" drop-point skinning blade of tough AUS8A stainless steel at 57-59 Rc.

The Elite Skinner™ Series consists of four exciting new skinners. Series I consists of two fixed blade knives with deep bellied skinner blades, one with a guthook. Both have Olive Wood handle scales. Most interesting are the two knives in Series II. These are folders, but Remington® has designed a carrying system (sheath) that allows them to be carried either as a folder or as a fixed blade.

No two Randall Made knives are exactly alike, for no jigs or patterns are used in their final construction. Large scale commercial production with this kind of attention to detail is not feasible and that's why knives of this unique quality are not widely available.

Over the past few years, Blue Steel and White Steel from Japan have become fairly popular in the United States. This is partly due to the mystery surrounding just what these Japanese steels are, but it is largely because high carbon tool steels are no longer widely used in knives being produced today. Lots of A. G. Russell™ customers still feel that the non-stainless high carbon blade steels are the best.

Keith Murr is a Northwest Arkansas maker who worked for a period of time in Bob Dozier's shop.

The Outcast Bush Knife will handle just about any task in the great outdoors from chopping weeds to clearing a new campsite. The 10" deep bellied machete style is D-2 tool-steel for wear resistance and toughness. For stain resistance the blade is coated with black Teflon®.

Rick Schuchmann calls his business "Schuchmann Cutlery and Replicas" or SCAR. He is a buyer for the German chemical giant Siemans, lives in Ohio and has been making knives since 1997. He has been making the Scagel replicas since about 2000. You can judge his progress for yourself.

We have re-designed the Hunter Scalpel making it a miniature of the full sized Deer Hunter, which has a 4" blade. The same Thumbolt® sheath design patented by Blackie Collins and assigned to A. G. Russell™ Knives is used by both these knives as well as the A. G. Russell™ Bird & Trout.

Curly Zebrawood is a new handle material for Case®. It is a beautiful wood that is so named because of the zebra-like stripes that run through it. It is a heavy hardwood with a rather coarse texture and a wavy or "curly" pattern. This wood is not often used in production knife handles because of the difficulty of working with it. It has historically been used for veneer for custom furniture and furniture trim and inlays. It is very difficult to plane or machine. The wood that Case® has chosen for this series has a tight pattern with beautiful colors.

The Karambit is a personal utility knife from Samatra or Java. It is most often seen with a hooked "Tiger Claw" slashing style blade, but Fox Cutlery from Manigo, Italy has recently introduced a hunter version.

We have been selling Randall knives for many years, but cannot purchase enough to offer them in every catalog. Before we put a knife in a catalog, we have a good stock on our shelves and a large quantity already on order from Randall. Even with this planning, we usually find that customers who order late must wait for delivery.

When you first take your knife out of the box, it may take you a minute to find and deploy the Gut Hook.

Outdoor Edge® has a substantial reputation for creating highly functional, hard working knives and butchering tools for the serious hunter.

Since 2002, Ka-Bar® Knives has offered a line of custom-designed Dozier lockback folders. These knives are designed for hard work, and are perfect for everyday use.

Japanese knifemaker Takeshi Saji makes knives using the very best materials. The White Steel center core of this 6" blade, which provides the cutting edge, is a pure carbon steel with a Rockwell hardness above 60. Each side consists of 11 layer Suminagashi, the Japanese equivalent of Damasteel. This is high-carbon tool steel and must be protected against rust. We have included a bottle of RustFree for that purpose.

Designed with the serious hunter in mind, the Northside Hunter has an ergonomic handle design and an angled blade design to help make field dressing an easier task.

You will be blown away by the quality and finish of the Kommer 30-30 folding hunters. Designed by knifemaker and former Alaskan guide Russ Kommer, these production knives have that special look and slick action of a Kommer custom. They are built of quality materials and finished by hand.

Custom knives are often set apart by the exotic materials used. It is no surprise that custom knifemaker Ron Lake was persistent in his desire that Columbia River Knife & Tool® use those same materials in the Sentinel.

For 2008, Buck® created a series of three knives inspired by the artistry of handcrafted guitars. The handles are crafted from actual guitar fret material and abalone dots set in rich cocobolo wood scales. The first in this series is the Buck® Gen-5™, a fixed blade knife introduced in 2007.

Over the years, one of Buck's most popular fixed-blade hunting knives has been the 119 Special. The polished aluminum butt and guard and ebony colored phenolic handle make it an attractive addition to your hunting gear.

A set of two knives carried in a single sheath is not highly common even though knives have been carried this way since nearly the beginning of time.

Late in 2007, Canal Street Cutlery introduced an exciting new design by well-known knifemaker D'Alton Holder.

A peen is the end of the head of a hammer that is opposite the face and is used for bending, shaping, or cutting the material struck. It is often used to fix, or flatten, the pins that hold the bolsters in place. A natural part of that process is to lay a piece of leather over the knife to protect the bolster as the pin is peened. Canal Street has taken their idea for this unusual knife handle from that process.

Designed for the serious hunter, the Elk Skinner II combines a drop point blade and a guthook of sturdy AUS-8 stainless steel at 57-59 Rc. AUS-8 is a tough steel with excellent corrosion resistance.

The Wrangler Big Timber is a traditional style knife favored by those who are looking for something to use, not just hang on the belt.

The original Gut Hook has been very popular with hunters because it solved a problem: it made dressing large game much easier. I believe that the new Outdoor Edge® Swing Blade™ will usurp that market. David Bloch, owner and founder of Outdoor Edge, has taken the gut hook concept and improved it.

For some time, I have felt the need for a simple hunting knife made of a high quality blade steel but at a price that is affordable to most. We have been working on the design and production of this model for well over a year.

Series consists of three, three bladed folders, each with different handle inserts. Features 440C stainless steel blades. Leather hip holster included.

In the hands of an expert, a great knife for dressing deer. Sized for small game, it is the perfect for everyday wear.

Remington has created an entire line of Italian made knives, including a new line of hunters, both fixed blade and folders, and a new line of both fixed blade and folding tacticals. The look is completely new. Certainly not your daddy's Remington knife.

Only a few years ago Tinus, a teacher of Afrikaans and other subjects at an English School in South Africa, had never seen a handmade knife. His world changed when a friend showed him a knife that the friend had made. Tinus describes it as being rough indeed, but it inspired him to attempt his own. His knives improved for several years, but it was not until Tinus began selling outside South Africa that knifemaking became profitable.

We offer this hunter in two styles, a drop point blade and a gut-hook. The gut-hook was invented by Sid Bell, "The Alaskan Silversmith," who took his whittled model to Alaskan knifemaker Merle Seguine about 40 years ago. Buck's gut-hook is a somewhat different pattern and has been patented and trademarked. The "Zipper" has a near square shape and should be easier to sharpen, it also should cut hides of almost any thickness.

Buck® has reprised Al Buck's personal favorite model, redesigned for today's hunter, using today's material, but with the same exacting standards that has keep Buck® knives at the forefront of the knife industry. The original Kalinga was retired from the Buck catalog in 1997. They have taken Al's original design from 1969 and added a modern steel and handle material.

The Buck® Alpha Dorado is a pocket size hunting folder, 30% smaller than the full-size Alpha.

The Dozier Buffalo River Hunter was introduced late in 2005. It is a drop point hunter that was designed for A. G. Russell customers. At the time it was introduced, Desert Ironwood was plentiful. It is a wonderful handle material, but has become increasingly hard to find forcing Bob to look for other suitable handle material. He has found a source of Cocobolo that has as much striking contrast in grain, perhaps more, as the finest Desert Ironwood. Buffalo Hunters are now available with Cocolobo and Green Linen Micarta®. Like all of Bob's standard hollow ground hunting knives, these are hand ground in Bob's shop on grinders designed and built by him.

In early 2003, Ka-Bar introduced the third in their series of Bob Dozier designed folding hunters. Knife users responded very well to the first three blade styles; the Folding Hunter, Folding Skinner and Spear Point Hunter. At the 2004 S.H.O.T. Show they introduced a fourth version, a knife they call the Thumb Notch Folder. This version has an oval hole in the blade for easy opening. As with the others, the quality far exceeds the price

In addition to being a knifemaker, Wayne Hendrix is a hunting guide. His knives are built to function for both the novice and the expert and to hold up in hard use. Like most of his knives, the Pathfinder is a very basic knife for the outdoors.

Most knife people know Bob Dozier as a great knifemaker, but few know him for the open hearted and generous person that he is. He told me of a remarkable knifemaker in Carolina who made great knives which were really under priced.

Bob Dozier has taken on the challenge of making the ultimate Loveless designed drop point which we will sell for about one-third or one-fourth the current market price of a genuine Loveless hunting knife.

From the manufacturer:

Some of our more popular items we have carried from Outdoor Edge have been their combo packs. They put together two items whose use compliment each othe while camping or hunting and put them together in a sheath for easy carry.

The knife for the professional packer or guide who works in remote areas and does not want to carry more than one knife. This knife is large enough to do the whole job on any big game animal as well as camp chores. It will also have a good edge when other knives have become dull. Using his standard D2 at 60+ Rc, Bob produces a man sized knife with both the blade and the handle larger than most of his knives.

This line of Outdoor Edge folding skinners combines quality materials and craftsmanship and should provide years of reliable service.

"Special Price"

Series consists of two fixed blade hunters, each with a different blade pattern. Features 440C stainless steel blades and anodized aluminum handles with 3M non-slip inserts.

The Hybrid Pak is another great system for field dressing. The Hybrid Hunter and Kodi-Saw are both contained in a leather sheath.

Thirteen years ago Tinus, a teacher of Afrikaans and other subjects at an English School in South Africa, had never seen a handmade knife. His world changed when a friend showed him a knife that the friend had made. Tinus describes it as being rough indeed, but it inspired him to attempt his own.

Ever notice how alligators are completely indifferent to the weather? Well these prized knives are kinda the same, because they perform to their fullest whether the conditions are wet or dry.

The original Marble's Ideals were much thicker than the kitchen knives used until then and fullered with deep, wide fullers (often called "Blood Grooves"). They were not only new and interesting, they were made of 1095 and made harder than other knives. The fullers allowed easier cutting and generally the knives were better made with fine handle materials. Mr. Marble also invented the leather washer handle which was used on these, as well as his later knives.

When I first saw one of these knives, I could not figure out what on earth the handle and sheath were made of. Once I was told, I could see that the handles were easy, just cut the right size and shape sapling. But the rectangular sheath? The young Japanese makers explained that they take the bark of the cherry tree and soften it until they can cover the wooden handle and sheath with an almost undetectable joint.

Outdoor Edge has teamed up with custom knifemaker Neal Blackwood to bring you his most popular knife design. The Hybrid Hunter combines classic styling with modern features not found on ordinary hunting knives.

Indeed this knife is a knife that will work very well as a caping knife. It is also an excellent Gentleman's Hunting knife, that is a knife small in size but large in capabilities.

The Vanguard is Buck's answer to the Loveless Drop Point and all the variations sweeping the world of handmade knives.

The Buck® heavy duty Alpha folder is like bringing the 110 into the 21st Century. We offer this folder in two styles, a drop point blade and a gut-hook.

These rugged game shears are actually a very versatile piece of gear that can come in handy in many ways. They are simple to take apart for easy and thorough cleaning, no matter how they're used in the field.

This is a small game knife and in the hands of an expert, an outstanding big game knife. The 4-1/8" blade is 3/16" thick. The top of the blade is sharpened.

Randy has been making knives using the stock removal method for about 20 years. A protégé of D'Holder.

3" drop point blade of mirror polished ATS34. Handsome California Buckeye Burl handle with a nickel silver hilt and butt, and maroon and black micarta and nickel silver spacers. The hand tooled leather sheath is made by his wife, Sonja.

If you have been a customer very long, you have seen knives from Randy Lee before. He is one of the most popular knifemakers we have featured. Randy made his first knife in a high school shop class. He remained fascinated and years later, after studying with local makers, he decided to get serious and buy the proper equipment; this was 1979. It was 1988, however, before he attended his first knife show. Since then he has attended about six shows a year. A serious hunter, Randy field tests all of his designs. He wants them to work as well as they look. He is fortunate to have a wife who can make and decorate such fine sheaths. His sheaths are definitely a step above what is typical on knives of this price level.

If you want the perfect personal paring knife, about the best caping knife you can buy, or just a really great whittling knife, then you are looking at what you need.

The Bob Dozier Yukon Pro Skinner with Black Micarta® handle and horizontal belt sheath is a knife for the serious hunter, the man who makes his living in the woods. Instead of the traditional leather sheath that would over time get limp and rot, Bob builds precisely fitted sheaths of Kydex® for each knife.

This is a small personal knife with the same super edge holding D2 steel Bob puts into his much larger hunters and combat knives. This handy little knife with the canoe shaped handle is ideal for the kayaker or canoeist.

The Deer Hunter and the Bird & Trout were an entirely new concept including blade, handle and sheath. The blades are just thick enough to be stiff rather than flexible and are ground very thin all the way to the edge, creating a marvelous cutting tool.

The man who has skinned two to five deer a year for 20-50 years probably does not need a set like the Kodi-Pak. That man is probably using his father's or grandfather's pocketknife just as he was taught. However, if you don't have the finesse you once had, or haven't yet gained it, this may be the tool for you.

Between 1900 and World War II, Camillus Cutlery® was responsible for producing what was considered one of the finest quality lines of knives. Those knives were marked OVB meaning "Our Very Best".

This Fisk Sendero Hunter is the fourth, and last, model Camillus produced in the OVB line.

Both the Mini Alpha Hunter and the Alpha Dorado are enhanced with rare African Giraffe Bone for handle scales. Giraffe bone is the hardest and densest bone known to knife making.

This handy little hunter is intended to provide you with as much quality as possible for less than $50.

The Nehalem and Klamath were designed by Leatherman's engineering and design team as an Extreme Use Tool. These tools are meant for use by the serious hunter of Big Game Animals. They are built to handle the thick hide of such animals as the Cape Buffalo or Wild Boar.

To most of the people reading this catalog Bob Dozier's knives speak for themselves. The D2 high-carbon, high-chrome tool steel, hardened to 60-62 Rockwell, really holds an edge and the Dozier Kydex® sheaths that are molded to each knife hold the knife until the owner removes it with the magic release that Bob has designed into it.

This White River Skinner, named for the White River National Forest in Colorado, is as suitable for skinning Beaver as it is for skinning Grizzly or Moose.

In the late 1950s, D. H. Russell, owner of a cutlery store in Toronto, designed the Original Canadian Belt Knife. Demand for this design was so great that he brought an experienced cutler from Czechoslovakia to make the knives.

The Bowie Hunter is the largest knife ever produced by Canal Street Cutlery. It was designed for CSC by knifemaker D'Alton Holder of Peoria, AZ. This is a very useful integral knife with lots of sweeping curve for the belly; a great skinner and a fine camp knife.

This is a very slim version of the original Canadian Belt Knife designed in the late 1950's. It has been termed by one of our surgeon customers "handy as a fine scalpel".

The Echo combines Ken Onion's contoured handle with a powerful 4" droppoint blade of durable AUS-8 stainless at 57-59 Rc. The handle is all weather, molded Polymide, contoured for an extremely comfortable and secure grip. This unique shape means using the knife is less fatiguing, even when in use for long periods of time.

Böker® has owned a factory in Argentina for many years. It was staffed with German cutlery workers who had immigrated to that country, and now with their children and grandchildren.

The Crowell Hunter is the fourth release in Browning's Mastersmith Collection which includes knife designs from five of the most prestigious bladesmiths in the country; Bailey Bradshaw, Jerry Fisk, John Fitch, Joseph Keeslar and James Crowell. Each knifemaker has earned Mastersmith rank with the American Bladesmith Society.

Jerry Fisk is one of the most highly recognized bladesmiths making knives today. His knives have received so many awards that it would take much of this page to list them all. As a boy, Jerry watched in awe as a neighboring blacksmith created knife blades at his forge. A sixth grade field trip to the old James Black shop in Washington, Arkansas seems to have assured Jerry's path in life.

The Browning "Mastersmith Series" is remarkably successful, thanks in large part to the very desirable limits of only 500 of each knife. This means that there are never quite enough to go around to the dedicated collector/users of Browning products. "Big" John Fitch's large drop point is the third release in this series. The Bradshaw folder and Keeslar Hunter were released earlier this year.

The Keesler Hunter has a 5-1/2" satin finished drop point blade of high-carbon tool steel at 57-59 Rc. The Birdseye Maple handle scales are pinned to the full tang with four copper pins and are separated from the tang with copper liners.

Russ Kommer keeps coming up with ideas for high-value knives and tools that every hunter needs. CRKT calls this growing group of products The Kommer Collection. It includes a high-hollow ground skinner, a utility hunting knife and a unique chisel/sharpener.

Who better than Leatherman® could engineer a knife that does everything the hunter needs, in camp and at the downed game. Then they offer you a choice, a blade in top-of-the-line 154CM or over-the-top CPMS30V. The differences between the two models are a little more involved than that, but both are made of top quality materials with Leatherman quality workmanship.

A general purpose knife for the outdoors, great for dressing game.

A great general purpose knife for hunting, camping, or boating.

A special knife for Canadian trappers and professional hunters. A very curved 4 to 4-1/4" blade (1/8" thick), very upswept with lots of curve for skinning. Rosewood handles, brass rivets, thong hole at butt. 8" overall length. Leather sheath.

Bob Dozier has been one of America's foremost makers of handmade knives since about 1968. He makes some of the finest and most practical handmade knives you'll find. For many years, Bob made highly finished knives for sale to the public while making reasonably priced knives for his fellow iron-workers.

Gerber's push-button lock Sport Saw is a winner. The Big Game Hunter, the Camper, and the Gardner will all find this a really useful tool. This saw leaves a cut surface like a fine cabinet maker's handsaw. It can handle the bones in a moose or a deer, cut firewood as fast as a good axe, and for trimming 3-4 inch limbs around the house you cannot find a better hand powered saw. The secret is in the teeth.

This folding hunter is a revival of one introduced about 40 years ago by Grohmann Knives and patterned after the original D. H. Russell Canadian Belt Knife. This design with the "Wasp Waist" swept the World in the late 1950's.

Russ Kommer keeps coming up with ideas for high-value knives and tools that every hunter needs. CRKT calls this growing group of products The Kommer Collection. It includes a high-hollow ground skinner, a utility hunting knife and a unique chisel/sharpener.

This size and shape are popular with knowledgeable outdoorsmen all over the World. Has brass hilt and butt cap and a handle of genuine India Stag. Weighs 4-5 oz. Brown leather sheath. (Will be delivered with wrist thong.)

Bob's concept of a personal knife is a knife that can be carried day in and day out; a knife that is never in the way but is always instantly available.

The Dozier Arkansas Toothpick is a practical knife with a 3-1/2" blade that is single edged but double ground. You can sharpen the clip portion of the swedge if you are willing to risk the various double edged laws around the country.

The knife for the professional packer or guide who works in remote areas and does not want to carry more than one knife. This knife is large enough to do the whole job on any big game animal as well as camp chores.

This handy little knife is remarkable for its design, its execution, the unusual carrying arrangement and the almost unbelievably low price.

The Dozier Professional Skinner is shaped to perform the maximum skinning job while allowing its use for most other camp chores. This is the knife for the man who wants the very best professional tool available. There will be no knife in the camp that will out perform it at skinning. 7-1/2" overall length with a 3-1/2" blade of D2 at 60-61 Rc.

This is the drop point blade carried to its ultimate conclusion. A knife suited to the skinning of any animal on this or any other continent. The 3-1/2" by 1-1/8" blade of D2 at 60-61 Rc. will flay everything from a small whitetail to a 20 foot salt water crock with the same ease, and will hold an edge beyond your experience. Bob Dozier's personal heat-treat of D2 is fast becoming legendary among knife aficionados (those of us who love knives and great edge holding).
