Chuck Hawes Custom Black Ash Burl Small Remington Burl Pattern Damascus Blade

The Chuck Hawes Custom Small Remington is a classic slip joint design made in the traditional fashion. Handsome, stabilized Black Ash Burl handle scales are flush fit to Damascus bolsters over stainless steel liners. The handles house a razor sharp, hand forged Burl pattern Damascus blade and file-worked Damascus back spring.

Brand new directly from Chuck Hawes.

Blade: Hawes hand forged Damascus combines 160 layers of 1095 and L6 high carbon steels creating a unique Burl pattern. The Remington-style drop point blade is opened with single nail nick and comes with a razor sharp convex grind. The forward swedge and file work along the spine adds a custom feel. The blade opens with a pronounced half stop with strong Damascus back spring construction.

Handle: Stainless steel liners support beautifully figured stabilized Black Ash Burl handle scales and Damascus steel bolsters all meeting seamlessly. A full length Damascus backs spring rounds out the handle construction and is embellished with the same file work found on the spine of the blade.

Includes cloth pouch for storage.
