Custom Stag-Horn Damascus Hunting Knife

Blade Specifications

• Blade Profile: A drop-point/clip-point hybrid with a pronounced “belly” for slicing.

• Grind: Flat or slightly hollow grind, featuring a visible secondary bevel for the cutting edge.

• Edge: Single-edged with a sharp point, suitable for piercing and skinning.

• Bolster: Integrated Damascus bolster that matches the blade pattern, providing a seamless transition and finger protection.

Handle Specifications

• Material: Authentic Stag Horn (Antler), retaining its natural rugged texture for superior grip.

• Construction: Hidden tang or rat-tail tang construction, secured by the end cap.

• Accents: Decorative metal spacers (likely brass or steel) and darker fiber liners for a refined, layered look.

• Ergonomics: Natural curves of the antler provide a unique, organic palm swell.

Damascus Specifications

• Pattern: High-contrast Raindrop or Ladder Damascus pattern, created by folding and forging different steel grades.

• Steel Composition: Likely a blend of 1095 High Carbon Steel (for hardness) and 15N20 Nickel Steel (for the bright contrast).

• Layer Count: Estimated between 250 to 350 layers, given the density of the visible “ripples.”

• Finish: Acid-etched to deepen the dark oxides and make the nickel layers pop visually.
