Bird and trout knife with rewarewa handle made by Jeremy Tye in Christchurch, New Zealand

A compact bird and trout knife with a carbon steel blade, brass bolsters and a rewarewa handle. It comes in a leather sheath.

Blade 9cm, total length 20cm.

Handcrafted by Jeremy Tye in Ōtautahi Christchurch, Aotearoa.

Care: Hand wash in warm soapy water and dry straight away. Never put it in the dishwasher. Oil the blade occasionally with a little olive or vegetable oil to protect against rust. Carbon steel develops a natural patina with use. Have it professionally sharpened about once a year, or whenever it starts to feel dull. In Christchurch we recommend KASS Sharpening Services on St Asaph Street.
