Special summer 10% discount until 31st of July

All of OUR Tools are made from the very best Carbon, Damascus, Laminated, Semi Stainless or Stainless Steel. With handles or scales to compliment the style of the steel blank and hand sewn wet moulded sheaths that are purely to our patterns and designs. Costs range from £75-£800 for a complete item including sheath.

Our materials are sourced from sustainable areas of the world, such as the UK, America, Scandinavia, Africa and Australia. We use coloured Vulcanised Fibre, Acrylics, Brass, Nickel Silver, Moose, Woolly Mammoth, Reindeer Antler spacers and caps, with different types of bolsters that add extra style.

We have plenty of UK woods standing in planks as well as Micarta and Acrylics in sheet form, ready to be used, so handle sizes are not a problem.
Every tool and its components are gathered and matched at the time of making, together with an individually hand sewn and wet moulded vegetable tanned leather sheath. There will be some slight variation in the design and no two units will be quite the same.

Steel: Carbonsteel 1095 HRC: 58-59

The NKD Hudson 125 is a classic camping and chopping knife. The NKD take on this model in 1095 steel is a little slimmer than the original Hudson Bay knife, which allows for improved wood working and field cocking tasks.

The Hudson Bay Camp knife was the first knife in history to actually be called a "camp knife". The knife dates back to the pre-colonial days of the 1700s. The Hudson Bay Trading Company was the dominant import-export company of early North America. The colonials, frontiersmen and trappers began to ask the trading company for a large knife to be used around base camp for general camp use.

1095 steel is well-regarded for its high carbon content, which gives it a hardness that contributes to outstanding edge retention. This means that knives made from 1095 steel can maintain a sharp edge for an extended period between sharpenings. The knife blade has gone through an cold blacking finish process, giving it an appealing black, smooth satin finish, and an improving corrosion resistance.
