"Pherkad"

"Pherkad" ATS-34 high molybdenum stainless tool steel blade, nickel silver bolsters, Siberian Jade gemstone handle, rayskin inlaid leather sheath

"Pherkad"

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