Description: Knives that have mixed the warmth of natural wood and stag have always been a favorite of mine and this knife does it to perfection. Fine silver inlay adds an heirloom quality to this exceptional Jay Hendrickson hunter.
Mastersmith Jay Hendrickson began by forging the 5160 carbon steel blade to shape. The appleseed grind is a hallmark of Jay's hand forged blades. A clear differential heat treatment line travels along the blade, showing the transition between soft, supportive spine and the keen, hard edge steel.
The stacked handle is formed from two primary sections -- combining stag with curly maple. The curly maple has been inlaid with fine silver and differentially dyed. Stag provides an exceptional grip -- even with wet hands. A nickel silver pin and end cap complete the handle. Exceptional work throughout from a true master!
