A2 With Buckeye Burl

Why Just Own A Knife When You Can Own A Piece Of Art?​

My name is Richard Von Hagen Palmer, functional artist and the maker of Von Hagen Knives. Each original, one of a kind Von Hagen Knife is handmade by me. For me, part of the thrill of being a functional artist is sketching my ideas on paper and then watching them come to life by my hands and in front of my eyes.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my work. I hope you like what you see.

This BUSH STYLE KNIFE is ground from 3/16" thick A-2 STEEL bar stock. The FULL TAPERED TANG knife is 9" long. The 4 ½" blade has a CONVEX GRIND. At its widest part, the blade is 1 ½". The handle is INCREDIBLE BUCKEYE BURL. This knife has a BLACK VULCANIZED SPACER.

The handle is tapered and hollow ground. This assures that the knife is perfectly balanced – not too heavy in the blade, not too heavy in the handle. This knife weighs only 6.43 ounces. When it is in the sheath and on your belt, you will be carrying 10.43 ounces.

Thanks for looking,
Rick
