Lot 16: Eighteenth Century Style Folding Knife by Tyler Mazer

Tyler Mazer has created this quality folding knife for this year’s auction. This is a hand forged knife with hand filing and fitting.  Based on a blend of folder styles found in “Swords and Knives of the American Revolution” and an original 4 panel folder of Tyler’s, this knife features brass bolsters, and side plates. The blade and spring are 1084 high carbon steel.  The antler scales are held in place by steel pins.  This 3 inch bladed knife is the perfect size for a weskit pocket, hunting pouch, or belt pouch.
