Arrival

Bird & Trout Knife from Northwoods Knives. D2 steel, cocobolo, and nickel silver:



The guard and pommel appear to have been made from poor quality castings, and finished in a half-assed fashion, with pits showing in the metal and not much effort at sanding or buffing them out. The blade is well-made of D2 tool steel, one of the better knife steels you can use for a working knife; stain-resistant but not fully stainless, it will rust if neglected.

$59.95, via Knives Ship Free.
