Product Description
The Kershaw Culpepper Brown Bone Edition (4383BJB) is a masterfully crafted tribute to the golden age of pocketknives, reimagined with modern high-performance materials. This KershawKnives.com exclusive model moves away from tactical aesthetics in favor of a refined, "old-world" feel. Featuring a stunning combination of jigged brown bone, polished copper bolsters, and brass hardware, the Culpepper is a sophisticated slipjoint that appeals equally to traditional knife enthusiasts and serious collectors.
The 3.25-inch clip point blade is forged from D2 tool steel, a high-carbon alloy prized for its exceptional edge retention and structural strength. Finished with a timeless satin polish, the blade utilizes a classic nail nick for manual opening. The handle is a showcase of traditional detailing, utilizing textured jigged bone accented by a polished copper shield insert, brass liners, and brass rivets. As a non-locking slipjoint, the Culpepper offers a legal-friendly, classic carry experience without sacrificing the cutting power of a modern tool.
