It’s an honor to release a new design, drawing inspiration from the Kephart – a time-honored knife, settled firmly upon the belts of outdoor enthusiasts and hunters everywhere.
Today we’re pleased to release the
Vintage Straightback!
This knife is perfect for anyone who is drawn to the traditional Kephart handle and appreciates a straight blade, with a fine tip for detailed use.
It features a 1/8-inch, O-1 high carbon blade with a convex grind.
The Vintage Straightback measures in at approximately 9 inches long, with a 4 1/2-inch blade.
The blade carries the Lucas Forge hot stamp in place of the standard etch.
The handle featured in this special release is classic dark walnut, with 3 steel pins!
Each one come with a leather sheath, made right here in Alabama!
One of these knives is being presented to the winner of the 2025 Lucas Forge knife drawing!
