The Utility Hunter Knife Kit Series is a compact, purpose-built fixed blade platform designed for makers who want control, versatility, and classic utility styling in a single build system. Built on a full tang 440A stainless steel blade blank, each kit provides a dependable foundation for crafting a custom knife suited for field use, workshop tasks, or display-grade builds.
The 3-inch hollow ground blade is satin finished for clean cutting performance and features a notched spine for improved forefinger indexing during precision work. A pre-attached solid brass guard reinforces hand protection while maintaining a traditional utility knife profile. The balanced geometry allows the handle butt to nest naturally into the palm, supporting controlled, detail-oriented cutting tasks.
All variations in the Utility Hunter Series share the same heat-treated 440A stainless steel construction, rated RC 54–56 for reliable edge retention and ease of sharpening. Each tang includes two pre-drilled 3/16-inch holes for secure handle assembly using the included stainless steel pinstock.
The series is offered in multiple build configurations, ranging from blade-only kits to complete combo kits with handle materials. Blade-only variations include the Utility Hunter blade blank, brass guard, and pinstock, giving the maker full freedom to design and source their own handle materials.
Select combo kits include pre-machined handle scales that are oversized and undrilled, allowing full control over final shaping, pin placement, and customization. Other variations include finished or rough-sawn handle scale sets, which may require full profiling, sanding, and drilling before installation. This mix of handle formats supports a wide range of skill levels, from first-time builders to experienced craftsmen looking for maximum creative control.
Available handle materials across the series include Bubinga, Canarywood, Curly Maple, Lacewood, Mahogany, Purpleheart, Walnut, and Yellowheart, each offering distinct grain character, density, and finishing behavior.
Whether building a compact hunting blade, a reliable utility cutter, or a custom collector piece, the Utility Hunter Series provides a consistent and adaptable platform with multiple build paths tailored to different tools, workflows, and skill levels.
