Product Overview

This massive knife style was being produced in Sheffield, England for the American market, just in time for pioneers and soldiers to show them off for the photographers lens. Along with several other styles, cutlery shops promoted this type of knife as the hunters companion. Its large enough for camp chores and disjointing game, yet light and fast enough for self-defense.
