Lower Layer Damascus Fixed Blade with Spalted Hackberry Handles

The Bob Rankin Hunter is a handcrafted fixed blade knife, designed for those who appreciate both functionality and artistry in their blades. Each knife features meticulously layered damascus steel, which not only provides strength but also an aesthetically pleasing pattern unique to each piece.

Blade

The 5.25" blade is crafted from low layer Damascus steel with a thickness of 0.164". This type of steel combines multiple layers of different steels, resulting in a strong and resilient edge that also exhibits exceptional toughness. The cutting edge measures 4.875", making it suitable for a variety of tasks including hunting and outdoor use.

Handle

The handle is made from spalted hackberry, measuring 0.72" thick and 4.5" in length. Spalted wood refers to wood that has been naturally or artificially marked by fungal growth, creating unique patterns that enhance the knife's visual appeal. This material provides a comfortable grip with its natural texture.

The knife comes equipped with a leather sheath for secure carry options, allowing it to be attached to belts or packs easily. The brass guard adds both protection and an aesthetic touch, complementing the overall design of this American-made hunter.
