Russells For Men

For those of you who are tired of the standard black handles on kitchen knives, but weren't really taken with our white corian-like handles, we have created a series with VG-10 Core Damascus blades and solid, natural Cocobolo handles.

Presented to his family in 1980, the Congressional Gold Medal has an image of The Duke with the inscribed words: John Wayne, American. Perfect verbiage for the man we know as a patriot and true American.

The Leatherman® Freestyle™ is a really lightweight pocket tool with the most needed features and easy, convenient one-handed opening and closing. This new tool weighs less than 5.0 oz, making it one of the lightest true tool/knife hybrids on the market today.

Razor sharp, functional and colorful, these knives are bound to be a conversation piece in your kitchen.

Now why didn't I think of that? Protects you and your kitchen knives for safe storage in your kitchen drawer or in the picnic basket. Locks securely in place to avoid accidental removal.

This four-piece set of cocobolo handled steak knives feature sleek contemporary European styling for elegance at any dinner table. Produced in Maniago, Italy, today's center for quality knife production in Europe, to the highest standards of quality. Many of the top cutlers in Maniago have banded together to organize a consortium of fifty or so companies to guarantee quality production.

This set of four elegant steak knives was created exclusively for A. G. Russell™ and Russell's for Men™. With Aztec Gold handle scales and nickel silver bolsters, these knives will complement your best silver or your everyday dinnerware.

Created exclusively for A. G. Russell™ and Russell's for Men™ by Santa Fe Stoneworks, this Kershaw Leek is a stunner. The Leek is an assisted opening knife designed by Cutlery Hall of Fame member Ken Onion. We have asked Santa Fe Stoneworks to take a standard Leek and turn it into something spectacular.

Created exclusively for A.G. Russell™ and Russell's for Men™ by Santa Fe Stoneworks, this Spyderco® Kiwi blends the traditional Spyderco® with the traditional lockback folder. Handsome black jet inlaid with diagonal bands of nickel silver and an embedded square of luscious abalone make this a class act.

Bob Dozier has been collecting the choicest of handle material all the 30 years I have known him. In the last couple of years he has found some of the most highly figured cocobolo I have ever seen. Of course, Bob also knows how to cut the wood to get the best effect. The result is some of the most magnificent cocobolo handles you will find on a knife.

Buck® has chosen their Duke folder as the canvas to present the highest hand in poker - the Royal Flush. The five cards are carved into a smooth buffalo horn handle then the lines are gold-filled. A spade is cut into the nickel silver bolster then gold plated.

In January this year, we arranged for him to complete a maximum of 100 hunters with a creative variation of the same theme. He has created images on both the obverse and reverse sides of the handle scales, not just a repeat as you might expect, but the obverse side has an image of the tiger walking toward you and the reverse side, an image of the tiger walking away from you. Very nice!

This is a very handy tool. During the Great Depression, knives of this type were commonly carried by men who were on the move, looking for work. These men were called Hobos and their common mode of transportation was a train boxcar. The A. G. Russell™ Boxcar Jack consists of a knife and fork that are held together by slots and pins in the liners and can easily be taken apart, resulting in a separate knife and fork.

These letter openers are authentic reproductions of WWII standard issue military knives. Both have a non-reflective black-coated carbon steel blade and stacked leather handle like the originals. Made in China.

The Lonewolf® Defender is a true "Gentlemen's Tactical Knife" with precision fit and finish, one of the toughest locks in the world and a premium quality blade.

The Robert E. Lee bowie is the fifth release in a series of six knives honoring American people, events or locations of historical significance. The first four were: The Liberty Tree, the Alamo, the Vietnam War and Crazy Horse. Browning expects to release Dwight Eisenhower in 2009. Browning, together with American Forests, develops each knife when wood becomes available from a tree that witnessed the event.

The Monarch is a classic design with a handle shape that beautifully showcases the exotic materials favored by Matt Conable for William Henry knives. This exclusive version of William Henry’s B5 features a frame of a marvelous heat-blued 'Croc Skin' Damascus hand forged by Chad Nichols.

This realistically sized Bowie knife is perfect for the Cowboy Action Shooter, the hunter of large game who needs a multi-purpose camp knife and the man who just likes a full sized knife.

This is not a camp knife or a hunting knife, but works wonderfully in the kitchen of a New York City apartment or a Wyoming hunting camp, when preparing a meal is the task at hand.

H. P. Klötzli has created a very limited series of Christian Wimpff's striking Gentleman's Folder with scrimshawed images of big game animals on Wooly Mammoth Ivory scales exclusively for A. G. Russell™ and Russell's For Men™.

The A.G. Russell One Hand Knife™ has been our best selling knife since the first ones were shipped in 1988. The handle, which is machined from a piece of solid stainless spring steel, works in conjunction with the blade to create an unusual locking system.

Pikatti is an Eskimo word meaning companion, an appropriate name for a small knife that was designed as a faithful tool to help with everyday tasks. Conceived as functional jewelry, the Pikatti is compact and lightweight for daily carry in the pocket or purse, but robust enough for a lifetime of daily use.

The way to use this knife as a cigar cutter is to insert the cigar in the cut-hole, close the blade against the cigar "cap" and turn the cigar while applying pressure to the blade. That way the "cap" is removed without crushing the cigar. Cuts up to a 50 gauge cigar.

Swiss Army knives are carried on belts, in purses and in pockets all over the world. It is probably one of the most recognized brands known today. For the Swiss Army Rescue Tool, Victorinox worked in close collaboration with rescue and safety services to design the best possible rescue tool.

Dramatic lines, graceful curves and exquisite materials define William Henry® knives. Wooly Mammoth Ivory is an exclusive handle material for A. G. Russell™ on William Henry knives and we have selected the beautiful creamy interior ivory for our first offering of the William Henry® Persian (B11).

The Boker® boot knife is now available with a blade made of 300+ layer Leo Damascus® steel. Steel from the gun barrel of the famous German battle tank Leopard is hand forged into a blade material with Boker's popular "Small Pyramids" pattern with a Rockwell hardness of about 63 Rc.

This elegant little penknife is produced by Maserin®, one of the top knife manufacturers in Maniago, Italy. This manufacturing company was established in 1960. The owners, members of the family who founded it, have built this company on the tradition of the artisan blacksmiths who were the reason Maniago became known as the "city of the knives".

We were recently offered a few hundred of this elegant gentleman's pocket tool by one of the Japanese manufacturers who has made knives for us for many years. He says that they have been buried in his warehouse for probably 20 years and that they are no longer being made. The construction is one hundred percent stainless steel.

"Discontinued-Only 2 left!"

Boker® created a very special piece for their 2008 Annual Damascus Series folder. It is a liner locking gentleman's knife designed by well-known Austrian knifemaker Stefan Gobec.

We have re-designed the Hunter Scalpel making it a miniature of the full sized Deer Hunter, which has a 4" blade. The same Thumbolt® sheath design patented by Blackie Collins and assigned to A. G. Russell™ Knives is used by both these knives as well as the A. G. Russell™ Bird & Trout.

C.A.S. Hanwei has been producing some of the finest period swords created in the past 20 years.

As a better match for the Cocobolo handles of our kitchen knives, we have constructed our wood knife block from poplar wood and added a black paint.

The Leo IV is the first fixed blade knife made using Damascus blade steel forged from the barrel of the famous German battletank, Leopard.

"Only 2 left!"

In recognizing their 110th Anniversary, Ka-Bar® has introduced three limited edition reproductions of knife patterns produced during the Union Cutlery years.

This stunningly beautiful line of classic cutlery features the look and benefits of Damascus steel, yet without its rusting problems.

During the time when a cutting tool was some form of stone, volcanic glass (obsidian) was the most prized of all the materials available. It enabled blades to be made that would cut better than any other material. Obsidian was so prized that men would travel hundreds of miles on foot to gather enough for a supply of tools. Landon Selby, the expert craftsman who has made our obsidian knives for years, uses the same materials and the same techniques to create all the models we offer.

While the CRKT® L'il Guppie™ is much smaller than the full-size Guppie, it is a surprisingly useful tool.

CRKT® liked the concept of the pendant/money clip knife and worked with Boyd to create a production Ashworth Turtle™ series. This is a useful knife suited to hundreds of daily tasks from clipping recipes to opening packages or sharpening pencils.

For 2008, Buck® created a series of three knives inspired by the artistry of handcrafted guitars. The handles are crafted from actual guitar fret material and abalone dots set in rich cocobolo wood scales. The first in this series is the Buck® Gen-5™, a fixed blade knife introduced in 2007.

Johnny Cash has been a legend in American Country Music for several decades. In the early years he was truly a rebel with a unique vocal style that set him apart. As his life progressed, he was recognized not only by his fans, but by industry insiders as a true innovator in the industry. With these two commemorative trappers, W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery pays tribute to the "Man in Black".

This unusual and exquisite gentleman's folder is a collaboration between one of Japan's top makers of handmade folders (Koji Hara) and one of Japan's top knife manufacturers (G. Sakai). The theme is the bamboo plant, one common in Japanese history and culture.

These letter openers are authentic reproductions of WWII standard issue military knives. Both have a non-reflective black coated carbon steel blade and stacked leather handle like the originals.

This folder is our third selection in Mcusta's series of Limited Edition knives based on traditional Japanese Art images. The butterfly is a popular symbol in the Japanese culture. It is often used to represent metamorphosis or transformation and often represents spring. For centuries Japanese family crests have contained designs based on the butterfly.

Gold-lip Pearl makes exquisite handle material for small gentleman's folders like the Paul® Presto. The color of the pearl chosen by Lone Wolf for this limited group of knives has a lot of gold color filled with iridescence tending to green and pink.

What a striking knife! Lone Wolf Knives has selected exhibition grade white Mother-of-Pearl for the handle scales and then set that off with an inlay of Fiery Red Opal set in a pattern of thin nickel silver strips.

The SOG Fusion Muscle Car is designed with an obvious theme in mind, high performance. The wheel that turns with the knife, a fan belt and pulley array, exhaust pipe, racing stripes, hood latch thumbstud, spoilers, competition numbers gear shifter clip, headlights and license plate engraving are all fun reminders of the muscle car era.

This version of the GenTac is a 100 piece limited edition produced exclusively for A. G. Russell™ customers and members of the Knife Collectors Club™. The 3-1/8" blade is Devin Thomas' Dot Matrix stainless Damascus at 59-61 Rc.

This small 1830s to 1840s style Bowie Knife from Wrangler® has handle scales of Curly Maple and a drop point blade with file worked back and Spanish notch. Like knives made during those years in this country, the blade is thin (about 1/16"), making the knife both lightweight and a good choice for slicing.

Sure Shine has been formulated for the marine industry. A one step application cleans, polishes and protects.

Every traveler using an automobile, Jeep, SUV or any other vehicle should carry this kit when on the road. We carry one in each vehicle. When driving to the Guild Show in 1997, I saw a couple somersault a big Mercury at 65 mph. When I pulled up to help, they had landed facing the opposite direction from which they were traveling, but right-side up. It took the third vehicle to stop before any of us had tools to help make those people safe.

This handy little knife is one of the hottest around. If you (or any of your friends) smoke cigars, you will want to have one of these, maybe one in the office, one at home, and one for the car. In the pocket, it is also a money clip.

No one needs to convince a horse person of the necessity of carrying a hoof-pick. If you ride, you know that it is an absolute must. Is there a finer gift for your horse person? Well, maybe a handmade saddle, in which case may we suggest that you have a pocket put on the saddle for one of these knives.

The idea of cutting a fine steak with the knife provided by most restaurants, even very classy ones, is nearly enough to keep me from ordering a steak. A perfect solution to this problem is the Shun Gentleman's Personal Knife.

At the 2007 S.H.O.T. Show, we arranged with Mcusta® to receive a series of Limited Edition versions of this beautiful folder created with precision inlay work in natural wood handles.

In the Old West a piece of cloth or leather was wrapped around a muzzle loader's lead shot to prevent the escape of gases when the gun was fired. Each "patch" was cut with a knife much like this one created by Wrangler®. Like the original knives made during the early years of this country, the blades are thin (about 1/16") making the knife both lightweight and a good choice for slicing.

Swiss Army knives are carried in pockets and in belt pouches all over the world. The Swiss Champ is a standard model carried by multitudes for years. It is built in 8 layers with 33 different functions. A bulky yet pocket sized toolbox.

First fossilized Mammoth Ivory and then Mammoth Tooth became very desirable for knife handles. Over the past few years, we have seen a few handmade knifemakers use Mammoth Bone. This material varies widely in its appearance because bone starts out very absorbent and easily picks up color from the minerals in the soil where it has laid for thousands of years. Unlike ivory, which will usually have color on the surface (bark), Mammoth Bone will have absorbed the color through the entire thickness.

The SOG® Kilowatt is a working theme knife designed for the electrician, homeowner, contractor, or anyone who might need to strip wire in a pinch. Three separate systems address wire from fine multi-strand all the way up to cable.

The Guppie's™ adjustable wrench jaw opens to 1/2", making it a handy tool for light assembly and repair, and a very useful emergency tool in the home, office, or outdoors.

The B5 Chardonnay is the first ever offering of a William Henry button lock built as an interframe. It was designed and built exclusively for A. G. Russell customers.

This is a knife for food preparation. It is designed to be a personal knife for those who want the finest possible tool for slicing, dicing and otherwise preparing vegetables and meats. Also shown are all purpose tweezers.

A traditional European style paring knife with a 3-1/2" blade of damascus clad super steel. Weighs only 2.4 oz.

The Osprey is either a small "Gentleman's" Locking Knife or a Miniature Frontlock knife. In either case, it is a pleasure to handle and to own.

The knives in this set are for those of you who have been searching for kitchen knives of superlative steel.

I really liked the kitchen knives that Erika Dahmann made for us in Solingen from the 1970s until she sold the company in the mid-1990s. Our Italian partner is capable of that same quality. Those German knives were bought by a great many of the top handmade knifemakers for use in their own kitchens.

There were only 1,800 CM-4's with Ivory scales made. We then produced the Model 104 in five different handle materials (only these remain). These are great knives. You can not get this quality today any place else at these prices. If you want one of the knives made in the original shop of the Bertram Firm, this is an opportunity you will not want to miss.

Ron Yellowhorse, one of two of David Yellowhorse's sons currently following in his footsteps, has created this versions of Chief Sitting Bull using the A.G. Russell™ Gent's Lockback. He has masterfully represented the essence of his Navajo heritage in semi-precious stone and lustrous metals.

The original knife collectors polish; for polishing chrome, silver, brass, nickel silver, blade steels, etc. I have used it for over 30 years and while I have tried every new polish I run into, I have never found one to replace it.

We produced the Ultimate Pen Knife because a knife this small hasn't been produced for many years and never previously with Titanium scales or VG-10 blade steel. This is the most PC knife you can imagine. It is so small, it will not offend anyone.

Designed with comfort as well as functionality in mind, the Zilla™Tool is a departure from the typical multi-tool pliers. It has an ergonomic design, with rounded edges throughout, no sharp edges to hurt the hand.

In 1979, Hen & Rooster and A. G. Russell produced the CM-7, the .45 Long Colt which was the first knife designed entirely by me for Hen & Rooster to make.

The Little Brother Barlow, released in 1978, was an original A. G. Russell design produced for the Knife Collector's Club. It had a cartridge inlay of a .219 Zipper, a really hot varmint cartridge of the 1930s. This was a jack knife for dress wear; slim, compact and of the absolute highest quality. Hen & Rooster knives were made years before William Henry appeared and are still the finest traditional pocketknives ever made.

This pocketknife was designed for the woodcarver who wants to work anywhere, and not always have to carry his tool roll, mallet and other tools. There are six blades designed for the carver, a detail knife, a straight gouge, hook knife, V-scorp, gouge scorp, and a chisel. All of the blades are razor sharp and all blades lock in the open position.

This block is hollow which means there is no way for debris and bacteria to accumulate inside the knife block and come in contact with knife blades.

This five-in-one Carabiner tool features a sturdy 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum frame in black and a 3-1/4" blade made from AUS-6 stainless steel at 57-59 Rc.

What a handy little tool for those of us who carry one of the many knives being produced today using Torx fasteners. This catalog is full of knives with Torx fastners to attach handle scales to the knife frame or to hold pocket clips that are removable or reversible.

For years we have watched for woodcarving sets and had not seen one that we felt was worthy of our customer's attention. Now we have found, from one of our top Japanese knifemakers, a set of carving tools with exotic wood handles and fine carbon steel blades in a stitched canvas tool wrap.

What a GREAT set of tools! The photo sample will go into my shop as soon as Jim Weyer has finished his photo work. This is such a great idea, 16 blades and two quick connect handles, PLUS a wood cutting knife, an edge polishing block (SlipStrop™) and polish compound, everything you need to begin as a woodcarver all in a wooden box.

Bob Dozier has taken on the challenge of making the ultimate Loveless designed drop point which we will sell for about one-third or one-fourth the current market price of a genuine Loveless hunting knife.

"Special Price"

This reduced version of the old-time favorite measures only 4-1/4" closed. Features the traditional yellow delrin handle with inset sharpening stone for fish hooks.

A great tool, especially for those who are looking for one that is really sturdy.

Before this past year, I do not believe a knife was ever marked with the Wrangler® brand. Sometime during the past year, the brand's owner licensed a new U. S. knife company to produce Wrangler® knives. At this point there are only a few models in the line. It will be interesting to see what becomes of this.

The knife industry in Europe, as well as in Japan, has always centered around one area in each country. In England, it was Sheffield, in Germany, Solingen, in Japan, Seki City and in Italy it has been Maniago. In the recent past, we have seen a decline in quality knife production in England, Germany, the United States and most recently in Japan. There are good companies making quality knives remaining in Germany, Japan and the U. S., but they are few.

Over the years I have seen many sailors knives, including the one made for us in Japan. Year after year, those knives have proved to be both durable and dependable, but I have long felt that a new, modern design was needed. I have had requests from sailors for a knife with current materials and technical features.

For those of you who are tired of the standard black handles on kitchen knives, but weren't really taken with our white corian-like handles, we have created a series with VG-10 Core Damascus blades and solid, natural Cocobolo handles. We have re-designed the shape of the handle to provide a bit more fullness in the palm of the hand.

During the time when a cutting tool was some form of stone, volcanic glass (obsidian) was the most prized of all the materials available. It enabled blades to be made that would cut better than any other material. Obsidian was so prized that men would travel hundreds of miles on foot to gather enough for a supply of tools.

The KAI Shun Classic Ken Onion 8" Chef's Knife was introduced by Kershaw at the 2005 Blade® Show where it was selected as the Kitchen Knife of the Year®. The knife utilizes the same blade steel and handle material used in the original Shun knives, but the comparisons stop there. Ken Onion is a handmade knifemaker who has been designing knives for Kershaw for a number of years.

A convenient combination for your picnic basket, RV or kitchen drawer. Two Japanese manufacturers, one a maker of fine kitchen knives and one a maker of top quality scissors, have worked together to develop a tool that includes both.

Created exclusively for A. G. Russell and Russell's for Men by Santa Fe Stoneworks, this Kershaw Leek is a stunning knife, one that will give you years of pleasure. The Leek is an assisted opening knife designed by Ken Onion. It was an Onion design produced by Kershaw that started the assisted opening wave in folding knives.

These handsome steak knives with blades of 440 high-carbon stainless tool steel have been handled with Picasso Marble from Utah. The quality is outstanding, the appeal superb.

The Presto, from the remarkable mind of Paul Poehlmann and Lone Wolf Knives, is probably the most popular of all of Paul's renditions of his "Axial Lock".

The Argentine Gaucho, the "cowboy" of the Pampas, is as important in the Argentine culture as the American cowboy is in our own. Typically, the Gaucho carried a Winchester rifle, a Smith & Wesson revolver and a "punal".

For over 100 years Böker® has been making fine quality knives, including stag handled pocketknives. For most of those years the Böker® brand was overshadowed by the size and advertising power of Henckels and by the sheer elegance of Hen & Rooster. Today, they make the finest knives coming out Solingen, Germany.

To commemorate the 35th Anniversary of the founding of the Knife Collectors Club™, A.G. has designed the Cattaraugus® Two Blade Whittler. While this is a Reverse Congress pattern, notice that it is like no other Reverse Congress you have seen.

An upgraded version of the original SuperKnife has been introduced. It is the same design with a longer handle and it uses the same replacement blades. The difference is the ease with which the blade can be replaced.

The TwoCan is a nice little knife with a carabiner bail for attaching to your key ring. When you open the second blade it is also a really nice pair of snips, the nicest pocket scissors I have seen in over 25 years.

KAI Shun Classic Cutlery is a powerhouse in Seki City, Gifu Provence, Japan. Seki because of the location of iron, has been the center of the production of swords, knives and other cutting tools for the past 700 years. KAI has been a leader in kitchen and utility knives for over 90 years.

This outstanding product is the best we have ever seen for preventing rust or staining on high carbon tool steel, or any non-stainless steel. For best results clean the metal with WD-40 or very hot water.

The Leatherman Bit-Kit expands your bit collection with 21 extra double-sided bits, that's 42 tips. Each bit is made from S2 tool steel at 59 Rc. and includes its own black ballistic cloth sheath and bit holders for easy portability. Weighs 4.0 oz in sheath.

I really liked the kitchen knives that Erika Dahmann made for us in Solingen from the 1970s until she sold the company in the mid-1990s. Our Italian partner is capable of that same quality. Those German knives were bought by a great many of the top handmade knifemakers for use in their own kitchens.

Apple Coral has long been used in jewelry and has recently become very popular for knife handles, mostly on high-end folders. The beautiful red orange color is not reproducible in a man-made material and natural materials with a similiar color are seldom available in sizes large enough to make a full handle scale. If you like the way Apple Coral looks on a folder, you might want to obtain one in the near future.

Kyocera's premium cutlery line features a stunning Damascus-look pattern on the blades. Close in hardness to diamond, these advanced ceramic knives feature "HIP" (Hot Isostatic Pressed) blades fired a second time at a higher temperature and pressure for greater density. As a result, the HIP blade offers increased wear-resistance.

The Hybrid gardening tool combines a quality pruner with a multi-tool. The user-friendly design lets you get to the tools you need quickly and safely.

Once you have used the Leatherman® Vista, you will not be without it when preparing a site for your hunting camp or setting up your tree stand. The strong sharp pruning shears easily cut small branches. For bigger cutting jobs, the heavy-duty saw zips through wood with ease. The built-in awl is perfect for starting tree steps and the combo edge knife blade is ideal for almost any cutting job in the woods or at the campsite.

Each year the designers at Leatherman come up with yet another bigger and better multi-tool. One of the latest additions to their line is the Charge TTi. The Titanium handle houses a large bit driver, bottle/can opener, wood/metal & diamond-coated file, large screw driver, small bit driver, scissors, serrated knife blade/cutting hook and clip point blade.

This set of a cutting board with a dished center and a double bladed mincing knife will do a great job on garlic, onions, fresh herbs or nearly any food item you want to mince.

The Bowie Hunter is the largest knife ever produced by Canal Street Cutlery. It was designed for CSC by knifemaker D'Alton Holder of Peoria, AZ. This is a very useful integral knife with lots of sweeping curve for the belly; a great skinner and a fine camp knife.

This folding hunter is a revival of one introduced about 40 years ago by Grohmann Knives and patterned after the original D. H. Russell Canadian Belt Knife. This design with the "Wasp Waist" swept the World in the late 1950's.

An upgraded version of the original SuperKnife has been introduced. It is the same design with a longer handle and it uses the same replacement blades. The difference is the ease with which the blade can be replaced.

This was the last knife made by the little Bertram factory before I lost it in 1980. It is absolutely the finest quality production folding knife available today. Compare it to knives made by custom makers.

The .44 Magnum Whittler, released in 1975, is one of only two knives made for the Knife Collector's Club by Hen & Rooster and marked A. G. Russell. The other was the CM-4 Baby Barlow. All other KCC knives made by Hen & Rooster were marked with the hen and rooster on the mark side of the main blade and Bertram on the reverse.

Len Yule and his dad are the only father/son team to win the National Wild Turkey Call Championship. While his dad dominates the collectible duck call market, Len has earned his reputation with turkey calls, where his calls fetch from $1000-$4,000 each.

This knife and fork set begins with the centuries old pattern used by Bavarian hunters to carry in the pocket on the leg of their Lederhosen (leather shorts). Make a simple knife of that pattern (almost a perfect steak knife) with scales of the antler of European Red Deer, add those same great stag scales to a fork and we have a picnic set as elegant as anyone could wish for.

Browning® has introduced a series of six knives honoring American people, events or locations of historical significance. These six knives honor the Liberty Tree, Jim Bowie and the Alamo, Robert E. Lee, Dwight Eisenhower, the Vietnam War and Crazy Horse.

A.G. Russell™ Knives is honored with the opportunity to reproduce images from John Banovich’s paintings on knives produced in the A.G. Russell shop. The first image we have chosen is The Defensive Line, a narrow horizontal painting of five Cape Buffalo that is a natural for a large knife blade.
