A.G. Russell Knives

In the hands of an expert, a great knife for dressing deer. Sized for small game, it is the perfect for everyday wear. Measures 6-3/4" tip to butt with 3" drop point blade of .060 thick D2 at 60-62 Rc. or AUS-8 at 57-59 Rc. Weighs 1.9 oz. Made in Japan.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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. His knives improved for several years, but it was not until Tinus began selling outside South Africa that knifemaking became profitable.

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.

Bark River's Deluxe Game Series of knives is made up of a range of sizes that fit almost any hunting situation. Mike Stewart has designed these knives with field dressing and related hunting chores as their primary functions. They are heavily constructed and razor sharp.

For 2008, Buck® has 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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

After Russ Kommer makes a new knife, he takes it on the next hunting trip he guides and uses it on the heavy skinning of Alaskan moose, caribou and bear. If it works right, feels right, and holds its edge, Russ has another design in his book. If it doesn't, he takes it to his workshop and destroys it. Our new Signature Hunters started as Kommer customs and survived his field test. That's good enough for us at Columbia River Knife & Tool (CRKT).

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.

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.

Canal Street Cutlery is rising like a Phoenix from the ashes of Schrade Cutlery. With skills and knowledge from hundreds of combined years in the cutlery industry, this handful of dedicated and talented men are abandoning the names and dross of the 100 year old Schrade firm like a Cicada leaves its skin.

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

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.

Canal Street Cutlery is located at 30 Canal Street in Ellenville, NY, an early home of Schrade Cutlery. Ellenville has a long and rich tradition in knife production dating back to the 19th century. Now in their third year of operation, Canal Street Cutlery has a wealth of knife making experience and technical knowledge.

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.

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.

In the late 1990s, the Japanese manufacturers of blades for the Ek® Hunters asked us to help them out by purchasing the abandoned stock for four knives. With permission from the then owners of the Ek trademark, we purchased parts in various levels of completion including marked blades.

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.

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.

At the 2004 S.H.O.T. Show in mid-February Ka-Bar 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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

For several years, we have purchased knives from Japan with blades made of a laminated steel with a VG-10 core. First it was a seven-piece set of A. G. Russell™ kitchen knives with white Corian® handles. What an elegant set - and extremely sharp for use in the home or professional kitchen.

The Precision Hunter line of knives was created by Ka-Bar for hunters who want an inexpensive, lightweight knife which will hold its edge through a large amount of field dressing without re-sharpening.

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.

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.

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.

You will be blown away by the quality and finish of the new 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.

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 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.

In a very short time, Canal Street Cutlery has risen to the top of the U.S. custom knife industry. Combining more than 300 years of experience and using 19th century tradition with modern technology, Canal Street is committed to providing the finest U.S. manufactured product available today. All pieces are hand assembled and finished for a true classic look.

Late in 2007, Canal Street Cutlery introduced an exciting new design by well-known knifemaker D'Alton Holder. The cast integral hilt/bolster and 3-1/2" mirror polished drop point blade is 19C27 Swedish stainless at 60-62 Rc.

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.

Since 1884, people have been reading Woodcraft by George "Nessmuk" Sears. In Sears' childhood a young Narragansett Indian named Nessmuk ("wood drake") befriended him and taught him hunting, fishing and camping. It was from this friend that he took the pen name which he used through most of his life and which inspired the name for a camp knife design of the same name. Some variation of this design has been made by custom knifemakers for over one hundred years.

Bark River Knife & Tool Co. is a specialty Cutlery Company that focuses on producing fixed blade knives with maximum performance. Using a blend of modern and traditional manufacturing methods they have developed a series of knives with traditional visual appeal and superb blade performance. This is a small company and their production capacity is limited.

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.

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.

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.

This very useful and easily handled Gentleman's Hunter has anodized Titanium handles which range in color from green to blue depending on the way the light strikes it. There is a rainbow effect that is very different than the rainbow color we know from Kershaw, CRKT or SOG.

Blue Steel refers to a non-stainless high carbon tool steel produced by the Japanese Steel Maker Hitachi Metals. It is commonly used in woodworking tools and knives. The name simply refers to the color of the paper the steel is wrapped in when delivered from the manufacturer. The paper represents a coding system to identify the steel.

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.

I believe the Model 3 to be the very first model "Bo" Randall made. It would be hard to recognize today's clean-cut Model 3 as the same knife produced in 1937.

From the manufacturer:

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.

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

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.

As a guide, and as an Alaskan, Russ Kommer is a no-nonsense guy who designs simple, functional knives. He uses his knives on every trip he guides, and the faster he can skin and dress the game, the more hunting time his party can get in. It's that simple. That Kommer knives are also graceful and well balanced is almost incidental. After Russ makes a new knife, he takes it on the next hunting trip he guides and uses it on the heavy skinning of Alaskan moose, caribou and bear. If it works right, feels right and holds its edge, Russ has another design in his book. If it doesn't, he takes it to his workshop and destroys it.

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.

Cowboy Action Shooting is about romance, not reality. When I was a boy many of the real people these enactors are portraying were still alive and my father introduced me to some of them. A Texas Ranger with two big Bisley Colts kept my eyes bugged and my mouth shut while he and my father talked. It is easy to forget that 100 years ago men dressed in the shield front shirt and stripped pants would go for months between baths while working in heat and dust moving cattle from home range to market.

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.

These knives are made with today's knife buyer in mind. Instead of the very thin double guard of the original, these have a thicker, longer, sturdier, single guard and the blades are thicker, using 0170-6 at 57-59 Rc.

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.

Webster Marble was one of Outdoor America's greatest treasures. He designed some of the most important and influential knives of all time including the "Gamegetter" for trappers. He also produced some of the very best aperture sights for lever action rifles. In 1898, Mr. Marble invented the "American Hunting Knife", which he called the Ideal. Until this knife, an American outdoorsman was using a kitchen knife or something homemade, probably cut by chisel from a crosscut saw, or maybe forged from a file. The Ideal was so popular that many European companies began to copy the pattern. The Remington Arms company produced an even more extensive line of the same pattern. Not satisfied to take the design, they called those "Remington Pattern Knives".

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.

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.

This neat little knife was brought to us by a young maker in Japan who is making a traditional hunting knife with a leather sheath for the American market.

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.

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.

Randall has been making handmade knives for over 50 years. Gary Randall, the present owner, took over from his father, W. D. "Bo" Randall in the mid 1970's. These are the best known and most noted handmade knives in the world. They have been mentioned in both novels and in histories. This very model was carried by U-2 pilot Gary Powers on his ill fated flight over the USSR. The Randall shop remains so busy that it often takes over four years to get a knife direct from them. For anyone wanting to order directly from Randall the price will be lower but the wait will be extremely long.

For over 50 years, these have been the best known handmade knives in the world. Gary Randall, the present owner, took over from his father, W. D. "Bo" Randall, in the mid 1970's and the shop remains so busy that it often takes over 4 years to get a knife directly from them. We are one of the few authorized Randall dealers, and try to keep a stock of their knives. If we don't have the knife that you want in stock, we can usually have it for you within 5 to 6 months, because our orders with Randall are booked years in advance. For anyone wanting to order directly from Randall the price will be lower but the wait will be extremely long.

This is a smaller version of the original Randall, styled after a knife by Bill Scagel. 4-1/2" blade of 3/16" non-stainless (O-1) tool steel. 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.)

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.

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 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.

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 a small personal knife, or neck 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. Its 2-7/8" straight blade can be used as a small game knife or as a personal all purpose utility knife, suitable for anyone who has a need for a top quality knife of this size.

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).
