Pherkad

• The style of this knife is an upswept drop point skinner, otherwise known as a Nessmuk style blade shape. This is a small, three fingered handle sized knife, just right for tight skinning chores, utility, or collection. I made this one with a hollow ground and mirror polished ATS-34 high chrome-moly tool steel blade for ultimate toughness and great wear characteristics. It has a simple scalloped filework on the fully tapered tang, nickel silver dovetailed bolsters, and a beautiful polished Siberian Nephrite Jade gemstone handle. The sheath is 9 -10 oz. leather shoulder, inlaid with green stingray skin, hand-stitched with polyester sinew, lacquered and sealed.
