Pre-Order — Stonewashed Hunter — Tassie Blackwood, TruStone & Antler

Our most popular build. The one everyone's been trying to get.

This is the Hunter that sells out in minutes on Thursday nights. We've opened it as a pre-order so you can lock one in without racing the clock.

Built as a hard-use all-rounder — equally at home dressing game, around camp, or in the bush. The blade is N690 stainless steel with a rugged stonewash finish that hides wear, cuts glare, and looks better the more you use it. N690 is the workhorse of our range — tough, corrosion-resistant, holds a working edge, and sharpens easily when you need it.

The handle combines Tasmanian Blackwood, TruStone spacer, and genuine fallow deer antler — our signature combination. Dense Australian timber, a clean colour break through the centre, and raw antler that gives you grip and character. This handle configuration is what put Iron Gate on the map.

Specs

• Steel: Böhler N690 Stainless — stonewashed finish for durability and low glare
• Handle: Tasmanian Blackwood, TruStone Spacer & Fallow Deer Antler
• Sheath: Custom-fit Kydex
• Profile: Full-size Hunter — skinning, dressing, camp work
• Made: Handmade in Anna Bay, NSW

Because every handle uses natural materials — real timber, real antler, real shell — no two knives will ever be identical. That's not a flaw. That's the point.

Keeping Your Edge

A quick strop before each use keeps your blade at its best. For a full sharpen, use a whetstone at the factory angle or send it back to us for free resharpening under the Iron Gate Lifetime Guarantee.

General Care

Wipe the blade dry after use. Apply mineral oil or handle wax to the handle every few months. Store in the included Kydex sheath.
