Description: This exceptional clip point hunter is made by Steam Mill Hollow Knife Works. SMHKW was started in 1990 by Don Hanson III, his father (Don Hanson II), and Don's brother David. The Hansons live in Steam Mill Hollow Missouri, deep in the Ozarks. After a few years they each went back to doing their own stuff. Recently David and Kyle (Don's son) started working in Don's shop and they decided to revive the old brand. The collaborative effort is exceptional!
The blade of this hunting knife is made from steel recovered from a large sawmill blade (8670 carbon steel) and is heat treated to 60 Hrc. The flats are forge finished. A differential heat treatment ensures a resilient, durable blade. Stabilized Missouri black walnut handle scales are set on a full tang for strength and durability. The domed handle is completed with a lined lanyard hole.
Accompanied by a hand stitched leather belt sheath.
Excellent work throughout!
