About This Piece
Small in size but full of character, this handcrafted clip point carries the kind of detail usually reserved for much larger presentation pieces.
The blade is forged from Damascus steel, giving the knife a flowing layered pattern that shifts in the light and makes every blade unique. The compact clip point profile keeps the knife practical and easy to carry while still offering the clean lines and control that make the design a longtime favorite among custom makers.
At the guard, hand engraving on the nickel silver bolster adds a refined touch without overwhelming the knife’s natural materials. The antler handle brings warmth and texture to the build, with natural color variation that ensures no two pieces are ever exactly alike.
Paired with a hand-stitched leather sheath, this knife feels like something that belongs on a belt, in a pack, or handed down over time rather than tucked away unseen.
Despite its smaller footprint, every inch of this piece reflects careful handwork and traditional craftsmanship.

Maker’s Note:
I’ve always liked smaller knives that still feel substantial in the hand. A knife doesn’t have to be large to carry character.
