The Clipper series combines classic clip point styling, premium USA-made Damascus steel, and customizable handle options into a knife project that delivers both visual appeal and real-world performance. Whether you prefer the compact proportions of the Clipper or the slightly larger Clipper XL, this collection provides a proven platform for creating a one-of-a-kind fixed blade that stands apart from mass-produced knives.
Each blade is manufactured in the USA from 416-layer carbon steel Damascus forged from a carefully selected blend of 52100, 5160, 203E, and 15N20 steels. The result is a striking layered pattern backed by excellent toughness, edge retention, and cutting performance. Every blade is heat treated to 56-58 RC and hollow ground for efficient slicing and a clean, refined appearance.
The Clipper offers a compact profile that excels as an everyday carry, utility knife, or lightweight field companion. For those wanting a little more handle length and overall presence, the Clipper XL provides a larger platform while maintaining the same proven design characteristics and Damascus construction.
Available configurations include blade-and-pinstock kits for complete customization, as well as combo kits featuring premium hardwood handle scales. Scale options include Bubinga, Canarywood, Curly Maple, Lacewood, Mahogany, Purpleheart, Walnut, and Yellowheart, allowing you to create anything from a traditional field knife to a bold showpiece.
Both models feature dual tang holes that accept the included stainless steel pinstock and can be easily modified for larger pins, Corby bolts, Loveless bolts, or other custom fastening systems. Whether you're building a personal carry knife, creating a gift, expanding your collection, or simply enjoying time in the shop, the Clipper series offers an outstanding foundation for a custom knife project.
From a straightforward weekend build to a fully customized heirloom-quality knife, the Clipper and Clipper XL Damascus series delivers premium materials, proven design, and the satisfaction that comes from creating a knife that's truly your own.
