This is a REAL 8″ STAG antler damascus steel knife. The handle is made of real stag antler for an incredible feel and grip. Beware of cheap imitations that use fake 3d printed handles. Each one of these handles are unique and vary in girth and feel. The damascus steel blades also each have their own unique design, like fingerprints, no two are the same. Each knife comes with a handmade hand stitched sheath.
