Description: Mastersmith Jay Hendrickson's knives have always inspired me. There is a gentlemanly elegance to his work that matches his personality. Fine silver scrolls and a domed nickel silver escutcheon are inlaid into presentation grade sycamore wood handle. The wood gives an heirloom quality to this exceptional Jay Hendrickson Trailing Point Hunter.
Jay began by forging the upswept damascus blade from 1084 and 15n20 carbon steels. By forging closely to shape, Jay ensures the optimal grain structure and edge retention. Jay believes strongly in the hand forging process and it clearly shows in his work. A convex grind provides a deceptively sharp, chip resistant edge.
The handle is formed from presentation grade sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) surrounded by a stag guard and pommel. Fine silver and a nickel silver escutcheon are meticulously inlaid into each side of the handle. The shaping of the sycamore feels great in hand and offers multiple grip options for different tasks. This knife is accompanied by a hand tooled, high quality brown leather pouch type sheath.
All work including finishing and embellishments -- of both the knife and sheath -- are completed by Jay in his shop.
