Description: Daniel Winkler became a fulltime knifemaker in 1988 and received accreditation as an American Bladesmith Society master bladesmith in 1993. He spent more than three decades studying and perfecting the nuances and handmade knives. Winkler Knives is a custom manufacturing operation that represents the evolution of Mastersmith Daniel Winkler’s knifemaking expertise coupled with the needs and field experience of Tier 1 Special Operations Teams from around the world.
This tool was crafted in the Winkler Knives shop in Northwestern North Carolina by skilled Blue Ridge Mountain artisans. It was created to provide unfailing performance and to last a lifetime. The Winkler Knives touch mark represents their unwavering commitment to producing the highest quality knives, axes, and breaching tools available.
For those wanting a somewhat longer blade, Daniel developed the Winkler Knives Field Knife. This knife is made from 3/16" thick, 80CrV2 carbon steel. The Field Knife is perfect for batoning through wood, slicing up game, or any other needs around the campsite. A Caswell black oxide finish is both non-reflective and provides limited rust resistance. Filework along the spine provides great thumb purchase when choking up on the blade.
Micarta handle scales are set on the distal tapered full tang. They are hand sculpted for a particularly secure, comfortable grip.
The versatile Boltaron lined leather sheath includes a metal belt clip for easy carry.
Made by artisans in the USA.
