Anza knives are made from old tool files, an excellent source of high carbon tool steel. Through a process called annealing, they remove the brittleness normally found in a file. The knives are then hand ground to shape, a handle is then added (various materials include micarta, elk, wood, etc), and final finishing, polishing and sharpening are then completed. The final result is a beautifully made knife that will both hold an edge and sharpen easily. All Anza knives are made from high carbon file steel and will darken with age. The advantage of high carbon steel is that it holds a sharp edge very well and is easier to sharpen than comparable stainless blades.


*This is a hand-made knife and will be roughly finished. Natural Materials will vary from picture. Anza knives are bulk packed, and do not include a box.
