Fine custom fixed blade knife by R. St. Cyr, featuring a well-executed Damascus steel blade with bold, organic patterning throughout, characteristic of layered and etched construction. The blade is engraved “R. St. Cyr” near the ricasso. The knife is fitted with a naturally contoured stag antler handle, displaying rich contrast and texture, and mounted with a sculptural double-quillon guard with subtle filework detail. Pommel cap and fittings are cleanly finished, complementing the overall craftsmanship. Accompanied by a hand-stitched leather sheath with belt loop and retention strap, consistent with custom maker work.
Dimensions approx.: 14.5h x 1.5w in.; blade 9.5h in.
