Description: Neill Schutte is a spectacular knifemaker.
He is perhaps best known for his Loveless style knives and recently started making folders. He has won a stunning set of awards including Best Fighter at the 2014 and 2015 Blade Shows in Atlanta, Best Hunting Knife at the 2014 and 2016 Knifemakers Guild Show of Southern Africa, Best Boot Knife at the 2013 Knifemakers Guild Show of Southern Africa, and Best Fancy Fixed Blade, Best Knife of Show, and Best Working Fixed Blade at the 2013 Bloemfontein Knifemakers Show.
This Loveless Style Drop Point Hunter features an N690 stainless steel blade. It is meticulously satin finished in the hollow grind and polished on the ricasso. N690 is made by Bohler in Austria. It takes an incredibly sharp edge and holds on to it. Increased toughness gives it better resistance to edge chipping.
Stabilized giraffe bone scales are set on a distal tapered full tang. Red fiber spacers add just the right amount of flash. The scales are set in place with two Corby fasteners and a lanyard tube.
The knife is accompanied by a pouch style leather sheath.
Absolutely tremendous!
