Meet the 7 7/8-inch Southern Red Oak Goldilocks #346 is a handcrafted piece designed for rugged reliability and timeless style. This Southern Red Oak Clip Point Knife features a striking antiqued blade finish. This gives it a weathered, vintage look that’s brand new yet full of character. For example, the 3 7/8-inch blade, crafted from 5/32-inch 1095 high carbon steel, ensures precision and durability for any task. Additionally, a 1 7/8-inch swedge enhances piercing capability (or as knifemakers say, “stabbiness”!). Thumb serrations provide superior control for everyday carry or hunting. The handle, made from stabilized Florida Southern Red Oak with mild steel pins, offers a warm, natural grip that’s both ergonomic and visually appealing. In fact, with an overall length of 7 7/8 inches and a blade width of 1 1/4 inches, this Southern Red Oak Clip Point Knife strikes a perfect balance of form and function.
