Three sister blades, bound in the rare blue of dyed bone, offer a complete tribute to the ancient art of the tracker. From the smallest paring edge to the longest skinning steel, this matched triad ensures no part of the harvested life is wasted in the field.
About this piece
3pc Blue Bone Hunterer Set is a fixed-blade knife carried by Warborn Blades, a licensed United States dealer of fixed-blade knives. It measures 12in overall by the house's own reckoning, the forge having stated no measure, and it ships from the house's own walls rather than a drop-shipper's warehouse.
The blade is Stainless Steel Blade. Stainless forgives neglect — it resists corrosion in a damp pack, a boat or a kitchen sink — at the cost of being slower to bring back to a keen edge.
Fittings and furniture: Bone (Blue Smooth). The fittings are where a piece is honest or is not — a guard, a pommel and a grip that are fitted tight will not shift under work.
Ownership and carry are two different questions. Most provinces permit possession of what they forbid on the street, and blade-length ceilings apply to carry rather than to what may be shipped to your door.
Knife laws by state — free, all fifty and the District.

The Trial of the Blade
Swing it before you own it. This exact piece — its reach, its weight, its steel — is put in a fitting hand and set against a living foe for three exchanges. What you feel is what you would carry.
The Tale of the Blade
What it is built for
This piece is built for hard use — one piece of steel, no joint to fail, nothing to fold shut.
The lineage of its steel — Stainless Steel Blade
Stainless steel. Chromium in the alloy resists rust rather than defeating it. It is forgiving of neglect and slightly stubborn on the stone — sharpen it patiently and it repays you.

The worker of the outdoors
One who trusts a sheath over a pocket, and wants an edge that will never close on a wet hand.
Keeping it alive
Dry it, oil it, store it out of the sheath for the long keep, and sharpen it before it is blunt rather than after. The house gives the whole method away for nothing.
The Upkeep Writ — free →The road it walked to this wall
1. Forged at the maker's fire
The piece is made by the forge that makes it — we do not pretend to have hammered it.
2. Received and looked over by the house
It comes into our walls and is checked before it is ever offered.
3. Sealed with the Seal of Provenance
The house records what it knows about the piece — and refuses to claim what it cannot prove.
4. Sent out from the house's own walls
It ships from us, with the record travelling beside it.
These four stations are the house’s standing doctrine for every piece it carries, not a tracking record of this one blade. Where the house cannot prove a claim, it strikes the claim rather than dressing it up.
The voice of the steel
Every piece in this house has one true note, and it is not a recording. 3pc Blue Bone Hunterer Set is 12″ of stainless steel blade, and a bar of that length and that temper rings at about 351 hertz — bright and steady, clean. Strike it and hear the piece itself.

The Blood Ledger
01The Pattern
A blade that does not fold is a blade that does not fail. The fixed knife is the plainest promise steel can make: full tang, no hinge, nothing between your hand and the edge but the handle you chose. It is the pattern that outlasts its owner and gets handed down without ceremony.
02The Making
Working stainless — Stainless Steel Blade. It forgives neglect, damp air, blood left too long on the blade. It gives up a little keenness in exchange, which is a trade most who carry daily are glad to make.
03The Carry
At 12 inches this is a belt piece with presence. It will be seen. Most of what a blade this size does in the world is deterrence, and deterrence only works when it is visible.
04The Reckoning
The house makes no claim about what this piece will do in your hand. It only records what its pattern has already done in others'.

What it leaves open
Swung honestly, it keeps you close. No piece covers every yard of ground — that is why no one ever carried only one. Beside it the house would hang something that reaches past the guard before he closes.
The Armorer’s Bench
What it leaves wantingNo one ever carried one blade. The armorer sets down what this piece cannot answer for, and names the steel that can.
