Product Description
Eye Brand Carl Schlieper Clodbuster Work Knife (GE99Y)) - 3.8" Solingen Carbon Steel Satin Finish Drop Point Blade, Yellow Synthetic Handle, 4.7" Closed
Eye Brand knives, sometimes called German Eye, have been Hammer forged in Solingen Germany by the Carl Schlieper family for over 100 years. Eye Brand Knives still use forged blades.
Hammer Forged blades: Eye Brand Knives is one of the few companies that still uses the age old method of hammer forging its blades. Most traditional knives today are cold stamped, but Eye Brand still forges the steel to shape. Hammer forging compresses and realigns the blade steel's grain structure, thereby increasing the toughness and edge holding characteristics of the knife blade. It is a more costly and time consuming process, but worth the effort.
