Antler & Burl Hunter

Some knives are designed to impress from across the room.

Others reveal their strengths the moment they are picked up.

The Antler & Burlwood Field Hunter belongs firmly in the second category.

Forged from high carbon steel, the blade features a practical field profile designed for versatility, control, and everyday usefulness. Clean lines and a balanced shape create a knife equally at home around camp, in the field, or carried as part of an outdoor kit.

The handle combines natural antler material with a burlwood spacer, creating a warm blend of textures and colors. The antler's natural shape contributes to the ergonomic design of the handle, allowing the knife to settle comfortably into the palm. Rather than removing the antler's character, the design embraces it, ensuring that no two knives could ever be exactly alike.

A polished brass guard provides a clean transition between blade and handle while adding a touch of traditional craftsmanship. The warm tones of the brass pair naturally with both the burlwood and antler, creating a design that feels timeless and balanced.

Built with hidden tang construction, the knife maintains a clean, elegant profile while allowing the natural materials to remain the focus of the piece.

Compact, comfortable, and built to be used, this knife reflects the enduring appeal of traditional materials and thoughtful craftsmanship.

Maker's Note:

I've always enjoyed working with antler because it naturally wants to fit the hand. This piece already had a beautiful shape before I ever started working on it, and the goal was simply to let the material guide the design rather than fight against it.
