Description: Bob Lay's designs are well thought out and show an amazing degree of craftsmanship. Warm cinnamon hues are set against black buffalo horn, resulting in an extremely dramatic classically styled hunter. The natural mun ebony (Diospyros mun) has a beautiful mix of chocolate and cinnamon tones. The stainless steel guard and butt cap create a perfect balance in the hand.
By mirror polishing the flats of the blade and satin finishing the grinds, Bob creates a knife with grind lines that are very dramatic. The 440C stainless steel blade has been heat treated to 58Rc for optimal edge retention and easy sharpening. It is clear why Bob's work is sought after by both collectors and hunters.
Exceptional fit and finish throughout.
Accompanied by a tooled leather sheath.
