The edge retention on the stag-handle hunter is unmatched. I skinned three stags on the West Coast and it still slices paper clean.

Marcus T., Fiordland Guide

The beachcombed totara handle feels like an extension of my hand. Balanced, rugged, and beautiful enough to leave on the block.

Chef Sarah W., Wanaka

A true heirloom. The weight is perfectly balanced forward, making heavy field dressing effortless. A masterpiece of utility.

Dave C., Southern Alps Hunter

The maker's promise

We don't build wall-hangers. Every blade is forged to survive the salt, the bush, and the kitchen, built to be passed down through generations.
