product features

Compact, Controlled Hunter

sharpening & knife care

Every Use

Hand-wash only: rinse with warm water and mild soap, then dry immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid dishwashers, detergents, and soaking.

Keeping It Sharp

Hone regularly: use a honing rod to realign the edge and maintain sharpness between sharpening sessions.
Sharpen as needed: when the edge dulls — typically a few times a year depending on use — use a whetstone or quality sharpener, holding a consistent angle as recommended for outdoor knives (usually ~20° per side).

Storage & Protection

Store in a sheath, knife block, or on a magnetic strip to protect the edge and prevent moisture exposure. Avoid loose drawers where blades can bump and dull.

Handle Care

• • Keep the antler and wood handle dry. Occasional application of mineral oil or wax can help maintain moisture balance and prevent cracking.

KNIFE SPECIFICATIONS

Hardness & Performance

Crafted from high-performance N690 stainless steel, the blade offers strong edge retention and corrosion resistance in demanding outdoor conditions. Finished with a clean false edge along the spine, it delivers speed, balance and precision when put to work.

Handmade Craftsmanship

Each Mini Hunter is handmade, assembled, sharpened and signed off in our Anna Bay workshop. Built in small batches with careful attention to balance and finish, it reflects practical design and skilled workmanship rather than mass production.

Corrosion Resistant & Durable

N690 stainless steel provides dependable resistance to rust and wear, making it well suited to coastal and harsh environments. The full tang construction ensures structural strength and long-term reliability under regular use.

Secure Grip & Retention

The integrated ring hole allows pinky retention for added control during detailed tasks. Combined with the natural contour of the antler handle, it provides a secure and confident grip in both dry and wet conditions.

Blade & Handle Materials

The blade is cut from premium N690 stainless steel and sharpened to a razor finish. The handle is crafted from natural Australian deer antler, with each piece varying in texture, colour and character — ensuring no two knives are ever the same.
