Hunting

A. G. Russell Drop Point Hunter

I feel that this blade shape is well suited in the larger size for general camp work as well as a big game knife.

A. G. Russell Japanese Hunting Knife

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.

White Steel Japanese Hunter

White 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. This is a coding system to identify the steel. The carbon content is about 1.4%, with 0.2-0.3% Manganese and 0.1-.02% silicon. It is a clean steel with only trace amounts of sulfur and phosphorus. Knife blades made with this steel will take an extremely good edge and will hold it through a lot of hard work.

A. G. Russell Bird & Trout

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. This is the way the world's finest kitchen knives are made, and is the wave of the future for top of the line hunting knives.

A. G. Russell Drop Point Hunters

Notice that these blades are deeply hollow ground. They have very thin edges for real slicing ability. The steel is ATS-34, today's premium high-carbon stainless that is used by the top custom knifemakers around the world.

Buck Game Shears

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.

Buck Alpha Folders

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.

Buck Vanguard & Buck Zipper

The Vanguard features a 4" drop point blade, hollow ground from 420HC, with a brass hilt and butt. The "Zipper" has a 1/4" cutting edge of the hook, which means that it will easily cut the heaviest hide you will find in this country, including Alaska.

Canal Street Cutlery Co. Drop Point Hunter

This Drop Point Hunter has a 3-1/2" blade of D2 tool steel at 57-58 Rc., polished on marked side and measures 8-1/8" overall.

CRKT Kommer Alaska Bwana

This is a very fine rendition of a Bob Loveless Semi-Skinner blade made in AUS-4 at 55-57 Rc. Russ Kommer, like most modern knife designers, including myself, knows where to go for inspiration where blade shapes are concerned.

CRKT Kommer Alaska Pro Hunters

These are classic knives for serious hunters, that you'll cherish and leave to your children. Maybe CRKT overdid it. It started when they told Alaskan knifemaker and hunting and fishing guide Russ Kommer that they wanted a series of premium classic hunters with stacked leather handles. He came back with these three functional (and graceful) designs. They are knives that you will use for skinning, caping and field chores, then clean and display proudly-for decades to come. Construction is the best CRKT can achieve, and they think it is unique.

D'Holder Crows Beak

This is the model that D' prefers to use himself. It has a 'Crows Beak' handle of Red Baltic Amber, Fossilized Oosic and Stabilized flame grain American Walnut. The 4-1/4" drop point blade, is made of ATS-34, the premier steel used by makers of hand-made knives throughout the world, heat-treated to 59-61 Rc. This steel, at this hardness, possesses the ideal balance of strength and edge-holding hardness.

Custom Shoppe Stag Handled Hunter's Bowie

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.

D'Holder Caper/ Hunter with Picasso Marble

Caper/Hunter with Picasso Marble Hand engraved by Pat Holder. I call this a Caper/Hunter. The blade is a 3-1/4" short clip blade of ATS-34 stainless heat-treated to 59-61 Rc, mirror polished and sharpened to a razor edge. The stainless steel bolsters are handsomely hand-engraved by Pat Holder, D's wife, with a ribbon scroll pattern.

Dozier Canoe Knife with Horizontal Sheath or Neck Sheath

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.

Dozier Classic

Bob has been setting aside the choicest of handle material for all of the 30 years I have known him. When Bob took a look at just what he had in stick stag, he found that he had something over 100 pieces in his stash. With stag now almost impossible to get, the result was the Dozier Classic. Now that the stag is no longer available, Bob has also fallen into some high quality African Blackwood, and is making the same knife with African Blackwood handle.

Dozier Master Skinner with Black Rucarta Handle-Right Handed

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).

Dozier New York Special

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

Dozier Professional Guides Knife with Wilderness Sheath

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.

Dozier Slim Outdoorsman

Ek Hunters

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

Gaétan Beauchamp 7-1/2" Hunter European Beech Wood Handle

We have found Gaétan's knives to be as popular as any maker we have featured, both for his exotic handle materials and for his fine scrimshaw. We have learned that it is important to have 10 or 15 of each of his knives on hand when they appear in brochures or catalogs because the demand is heavy. When those are gone delivery will take 3-4 months.

Gerber Exchange-A-Blade Sport Saw

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.

Gerber Big Game Kit

The success of the Gerber® SUV pack has led to yet another packaging of Gerber tools. The Big Game Cleaning Kit is a gathering of those items useful in a hunting camp.

Italian Camping Tableware

These Italian made picnic tools are based on a design that in Depression Era America became called a Hobo Knife. The name stuck because some version of this knife was carried by men who wandered from place to place looking for work, many using freight trains as a method of transportation. The word Hobo became a name used to describe these travelers.

Kershaw Kaper

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.

Leatherman Fixed Blade Hunting Knives

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.

Marble's Ideals

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.

Marble's Ideal with Maple Burl

Outdoor Edge Kodi-Pak

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.

Folding Skinners By Outdoor Edge

The new line of Outdoor Edge folding skinners combine quality materials and craftsmanship and should provide years of reliable service.

Stag and VG-10 Damascus Hunter

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. Then early this year, we introduced two different sizes of a drop point folder with Chinese Quince and White Bone handles.
