A Look at The Vintage Nessmuk Jr.
Today we’re zoning in on the Vintage Nessmuk Jr. model, which brings a compact, yet true-to-style option to the Nessmuk family of knives.
The Vintage Nessmuk is quick and very handy to use. It measures approximately 7 1/2 inches overall, with a 3 1/2-inch blade. The blade, with its sweeping edge and top profile, comes standard as 3/32-inch, O-1 high carbon steel with an aged finish, as shown here. You can also customize the look of your custom knife with a satin or hammer-forged finish.
Three brass pins, no lanyard hole, is the standard hardware option and lends a very traditional look to this design. If you want to go fancy, you can ask for mosaic pins.
As with all Lucas Forge models, you have your choice of many handle materials to make your knife your own. This handsome example has a classic walnut handle.
Each Vintage Nessmuk Jr. also comes with a handcrafted leather belt sheath, made right here in Alabama!
See the Vintage Nessmuk Jr. model page for more examples and inspiration! If you have any questions, please direct them to lucas@customhuntingknives.org.
P.S. Coming up soon, we’ll feature a 5-inch version of the Vintage Nessmuk itself. These make amazing custom sets. Thank you for visiting!
