A design collaboration between custom knife-maker Andrew Demko and Lynn C Thompson, the Ultimate Hunter represents the culmination of almost 3 years of design evolution. Exhaustively field tested on 4 continents - the Ultimate Hunter has processed and field dressed everything from boar to buffalo - and it has proved its worth time and time again! Made from American XHP steel with a Rockwell hardness of 60-61, the Ultimate Hunter is hand-ground to a razor edge that will last an amazingly long time. Its blade is continuously curved from ricasso to tip, with lots of belly for skinning game and a drop point to enable the deft slicing of the body cavity without puncturing the viscera. The heavily bead blasted, CNC machined American G10 handles are comfortably smooth, while still giving a very secure grip even with wet or bloody hands. Equipped with a super-strong Tri-Ad locking mechanism for extra safety, the Ultimate Hunter is a pure thoroughbred hunting outdoorsmans blade - practical, functional and incredibly capable!
