This is an original Montana Territory Knives of Bozeman, Montana knife with an excellent, Yellowstone National Park inspired, walking Great American Bison Buffalo scrimshaw artwork. This knife is truly a work of “Montana” art as it shows the iconic Buffalo scrimshaw silhouette with a starry night time mountain landscape scene, inspired by Yellowstone National Park, set on Buffalo Horn grips and a forged “rustic” Damascus—a tribute to the wilderness of our state and scrimshaw artwork of Native American Indian heritage. The blade has been forged from 1095HC (High Carbon) steel and 15N20 Nickel Carbon, which is then heated and folded into 396 layers, creating the astounding “Damascus” steel. The knife shows a wonderful ladder Damascus. The hollow grind full tang blade has been paired with a set of nice white wild Buffalo bone grip scales, which are secured to the piece using two mosaic pins and a lanyard loop. The tang of the knife has been artfully hand vine filled with thumb grip on the back of the blade. The grips have also artfully been scrimshaw etched with an image of the celestial night sky above a Yellowstone mountain and forested landscape, set into the silhouette of an American bison. The knife is in brand new condition. The blade is marked with the “MONTANA TERRITORY KNIVES BOZEMAN MONTANA” stamping, which shows the outline of Montana. The knife has been paired with a Great American Bison Buffalo leather, hand crafted sheath. The knife measures 8" long overall, with the blade being 3 3/4" long. The sheath and knife together measure 8 3/4" long.
