What can I say about William Henry Knives? The knives that emerge from William Henry Studios are simply the best semi-handmade, semi-production knives available to collectors and accumulators on the market today. In quality of workmanship, they rival the old Hen & Rooster knives made when I owned the factory in the early 80's. In terms of materials - there's nothing like them. The most exotic and rarest of knife materials are William Henry's everyday stock-in-trade. William Henry Knives are simply like no other knife made today.

William Henry Knives® B9 Kestral

William Henry Knives® B9 Kestral

First fossilized Mammoth Ivory and then Mammoth Tooth became very desirable for knife handles. Over the past few years, we have seen a few handmade knifemakers use Mammoth Bone. This material varies widely in its appearance because bone starts out very absorbent and easily picks up color from the minerals in the soil where it has laid for thousands of years. Unlike ivory, which will usually have color on the surface (bark), Mammoth Bone will have absorbed the color through the entire thickness.
