Old Guide Series: Mesquite and Mosaics
Old Guide Series: Curly Maple Set
Happy September, everyone! While summer may still officially be here for a few more days, we’re on the countdown to fall and all the traditions that come along with it.
Today we’re starting a short series of posts featuring the Old Guide model! This knife was created in collaboration with legendary outdoor writer, guide and friend Mr. J. Wayne Fears and was named by him personally, making it a special addition to the Lucas Forge designs.
To start us off, here’s a set of four custom Old Guide knives featuring the enduring favorite – curly maple! These knives all have aged blade finishes, and standard brass hardware.
The Old Guide is approximately 9 9/16 inches overall. The blade is about 4 3/8 inches long, leaving a plentiful handle, ideal for those of us with large hands or who favor a lot of working room on their handle.
The clipped blade, harking back to classic hunting knife blade styles, is constructed of O-1 high carbon tool steel, 1/8-inch thick, with a flat grind. The model comes standard with an aged blade finish and three brass pins, plus a lanyard hole.
As with all Lucas Forge designs, there’s a lot of room for creativity when choosing handle options and we’re going to be featuring a handful of those options in this little series.
Thank you for joining us! Please direct any questions to lucas@customhuntingknives.org.
