This hammered spear point survival knife measures 10 inches overall with a 6-inch blade and a 4-inch ram horn black resin handle. The blade carries a hammered finish along the spine flat and a mirror-polished edge. A copper bolster with a tiger engraving sits between the blade and handle. The handle is shaped from natural ram horn scales with black resin fill. A tan lace-stitched leather sheath with fringe tassel and belt loop is included for safe carry and field storage.

This is the only hammered spear point survival knife at JW Steel Crafts with a ram horn black resin handle and tiger engraved copper bolster in this 10-inch configuration.

The History Behind This Blade

Hammered finish blades were a standard product of frontier blacksmith shops across the American West in the 1800s. Smiths left the hammer marks on the flat as a sign of honest forging work — no grinding to hide the process, no polish to fake a cleaner finish than the steel earned. Ram horn was the handle material of choice for working outdoorsmen who needed a grip that stayed firm in wet, cold, and bloody field conditions. The JW Steel Crafts hammered spear point survival knife carries that same working tradition in every forged blade.

Blade Performance

The blade is forged from high carbon steel with a hammered finish along the spine flat and a mirror-polished cutting edge. The hammered surface is not decorative grinding — it is the natural result of the forging process left visible on the blade flat. The spear point profile centers the tip along the blade midline, giving you equal cutting geometry above and below the tip for piercing, skinning, and controlled outdoor cutting tasks. The mirror-polished edge reduces drag during slicing and field dressing work. Full tang construction runs through the entire ram horn handle and spreads weight evenly from blade tip to handle base for stable and controlled cutting throughout extended outdoor use.

Handle and Bolster Construction

The handle is shaped from natural ram horn scales with black resin fill. Ram horn is dense and naturally textured, giving a firm grip in wet and dry field conditions. The black resin fill runs through the natural horn material, making each handle visually unique with its own green, white, and dark pattern. No two ram horn handles look identical. A copper bolster sits between the blade and handle with a tiger engraving pressed into the face. The copper tone against the natural horn and hammered steel gives this knife a bold, distinct field aesthetic. The bolster adds front-end weight for better cutting balance and protects fingers from sliding onto the blade during heavy outdoor tasks.

Leather Sheath

The tan leather sheath features hand-laced stitching along the full edge and a leather fringe tassel at the tip. A belt loop allows secure field carry during hunting, camping, and outdoor use. The lace-stitched construction and fringe detail give the sheath a classic frontier presentation finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this knife different from other survival knives at JW Steel Crafts?

This is the only hammered spear point survival knife in the store with a ram horn black resin handle and tiger engraved copper bolster — no other listing combines this blade finish with this handle and bolster configuration.

What is the hammered finish on the blade? The hammered marks on the spine flat are left from the forging process. They are a sign of the forging work, not a decorative grind applied after shaping.

What is a spear point blade profile?

The spear point centers the tip along the blade midline with equal geometry above and below. 

What is the tiger engraving on the copper bolster?

The tiger is pressed into the copper bolster face during finishing. It adds a distinct visual detail and gives each knife a bold identity alongside the natural ram horn handle.

Is the leather sheath included?

Yes. The tan lace-stitched leather sheath with fringe tassel and belt loop is included for safe field carry and storage.

Is this knife full tang?

Yes. The tang runs the full length of the ram horn handle for strength, balance, and long-term durability under heavy outdoor use.

Is this knife suitable as a gift?

Yes. The hammered blade, ram horn black resin handle, tiger engraved copper bolster, and lace-stitched leather sheath make this a strong gift for hunters, campers, and working knife collectors.

How do I care for this knife?

Hand wash and dry immediately after use. Apply food-safe mineral oil to the blade occasionally. Store in the leather sheath in a dry place. Never put it in a dishwasher.
