This is my Ken Richardson hunting knife. I bought it from a collector, the only knife he has ever sold to someone, and it has been at my side longer than my wife.
This knife is an original hand made Ken Richardson knife and is about 20+ years old. It is made from saw blade and deer antler. The sheath is original, but is missing the leather "secure" string. While most would probably stick an old knife like this on a shelf or in a case, I still carry it on my side. The wear and tear/ aged look is honest and far from "factory" like you might have seen.

Of all the knives I own or have owned, this is with out a doubt, my favorite and likely the best of any of them.

And no, it is not nor will it ever be for sale. So, please don't bother asking. I intend to pass this on to my son someday, but not before I am dead...

Is there a scrimshawed deer head atop the handle?

Yes.

Thought so.

Cabela's sells them - or did up until a couple of years back.

Vaya,
