Canal Street Cutlery®, now in its third year of operation, is producing traditional American knives in its Ellenville, New York facility. Their standard handle material is Dark Amber Jigged Bone and standard production runs are 400 pieces. In addition to standard variations in those quantities, Canal Street produces smaller production runs in other handle materials for specific companies as well as short runs to commemorate specific events. Those have included a 25 piece edition commemorating the company's Second Founder's Day and a special D'Holder designed hunter for Friends of the NRA.
Early in 2007, we arranged for three folders from Canal Street with surface Ram's Horn handle scales. We chose a Gunstock Trapper, Wildcat Driller and a large Folding Hunter. The blades are satin finished 420HC stainless at 56-57 Rc. Bolsters and caps are nickel silver and the liners are brass. Made in the U. S. A.
