Description: John Leitch's desk knives will feel as at home in a collection as they will on an executive's desk.
The ATS-34 stainless steel blade was etched with a relief for Leitch's maker's mark. This results in the elegant matte finish that is a hallmark of Leitch's work. The ATS-34 stainless steel blade was heat treated by Paul Bos to Rc 59 and will have exceptional edge holding.
Rosewood handle scales are set on the full tang for strength and durability. The fit between nickel silver bolsters and rosewood is excellent -- without a perceptible seam.
This desk knife is accompanied by a hand stitched bullhide desk sheath.
Exceptional work throughout!
