The White Tail

The White Tail is a mid-sized droppoint hunter with a stabilized curly maple handle bordered by nickle-silver bolsters. It was finished with deer hunting season just around the corner, so we named it after the local prey. The White Tail was designed for game processing and general outdoor use, but is stylish enough to wear anywhere.

Steel: Hand forged 5160
Blade: Droppoint
Handle: Stabilized curly maple
Finish: Hand rubbed to 400 grit
Overall Length: 8 3/4 inches
Blade Length: 4 1/2 inches
Weight: 6.6 ounces
Sheath: Stamped and boned custom leather

 
We're asking $250 for this White Tail with sheath. Usually a knife with bolsters would cost more, but we have discounted this one due to minor, but visible glue lines at the butt end of the knife.

Talon Gets a Crossdraw Shealth

Scott devised a unique crossdraw sheath for the Talon fighter. Check it out!

That's me wearing the Talon, and I must say it's quite comfortable. I haven't taken it off quite yet, but I'm just breaking in the sheath. This one is for sale - $195 with sheath.

To purchase, email guineahogforge@gmail.com or buy directly off our website http://www.guineahogforge.com/. Full specs can be found on the website as well.

EMc for ECM

Every man (and every McGhee boy) should have a custom fixed blade. The EMc (or Every Man Carry) is E. Scott's latest design and 8-year-old E. Conner McGhee's birthday present. This version was made with a kid sized handle (1/4 inch shorter than a full-sized model), but the blade is perfect for just about anyone.

Steele: Cruforge V

Finish: Belt sanded to 45 microns

Handle: Hardened cord-wrap

Overall Length: 8 1/4 inches

Blade Length: 4 inches

Weight: 5.2 ounces

Sheath: Kydex

If interested in an EMc email guineahogforge@gmail.com.
