Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Cartouche Knife

This is a Russell Green River blade forged .0625" 1095 carbon steel ,flat ground. OAL is 9" with 5-3/4" of cutting edge. Figured ,book match cut eastern kiln dried maple with oil finish. Three 3/32" brass pins. This would make a killer personal steak knife.

Here's some info from where I get the blades " Track of the Wolf " :

" The "cartouche" knife was one of the most popular trade knives in the American and Canadian fur trade from the 1760s to the 1850s and was originally made by such cutlers as Benjamin Fenton of Sheffield, England, and J. Russell & Co. These knives were offered throughout North American by the Hudson's Bay Company, North West Company, American Fur Company, and others. Our north west cartouche blade was copied from an original found on the site of a North West Company fur post in central Minnesota and has been faithfully reproduced for us by Russell Green River, U.S.A..
