Description: Bladesmith Dakota Owen is following in his father Chris Owen's footsteps - the high school student has been making knives, sharing his father's forge, since he was 12 years old. He took up the hobby originally to spend time with his father doing something they both enjoy, but young Dakota is clearly a promising maker in his own right.
This hunter is based on Jerry Fisk's renowned Sendero Hunter. The drop point blade is forged from Dakota's own laddered Ws damascus. He used W2, 15N20, 1084 and 203E carbon steels, chosen for their excellent contrast as well as edge holding ability. The undulating pattern shows exceptional control and skill at the forge. The blade features a differential heat treatment -- with a softer, supportive spine and a hard, long lasting edge.
Amber stag scales ensure a secure grip. Black fiber spacers surround a thin copper spacer. This helps the knife adjust to temperature and humidity changes. Nickel silver fittings complete the piece. The knife is accompanied by a hand stitched leather sheath with ostrich leather overlay.
