This 4mm-thick camp knife is ideal for those heavier tasks where the extra weight can carry the blade through with greater force. The ‘Bushmaster’ has a shallow axe grind and its full-tang blade has a cutting edge 200mm long.

The handle has a heavy-walled tube for you to add your own lanyard if you wish.

The blade is made from the superb RWL34, a steel that is very hard wearing and stainless.

A traditionally handcrafted leather sheath is included in the price. This is made from full grain 3mm thick tooling leather dyed black and hand stitched with red thread.

The handle is of subtly figured African Blackwood laid on red fibre liners and fixed with my red ‘hallmark’ mosaic pins.

Handmade, Customisable Knives

My online shop has a range of finished knives ready to buy. Or you can have one of these designs custom-made at no extra cost. If you order a customised handmade knife, you can make your own choice of steel type, handle wood, colour of detailing and sheath. Take a look at your options…

Alternatively, for something extra-special, why not commission a knife entirely to your own specification?

This site showcases the wide range of my knife designs for the kitchen, the outdoors, or for woodcarving, perfected by talking to professional users. Whatever you choose, you can be sure you will receive a unique, quality item.
