Kestrel Knife | H+F POTTERY TOOLS
Kestrel Knife in torched Oregon black walnut with brass grip.
An adaptation of the Hawk Knife. These are made a bit flatter and wider on one side than on the other with a brass band for finger grip. These features give a better hold when your hands need a little extra help. For rim cutting + smaller slab work. This tool will allow the best control for fine cutting.
The hammering done to the surface of this brass blade is not only aesthetically pleasing, it hardens the brass to withstand gentle bending as it’s used. The texture will also allow a uniquely patterned patina to develop over time — which we think makes the tool even more special.
6 1/4” from tip of blade to base x 3/4” wide x 1/2” thick
Wipe clean after use. Once fully dry, re-apply oil as needed to preserve wood and maintain luster.
Hand cut, shaped, and finished by Sage Cortez
All of our wooden items are made from fallen or salvaged Oregon hardwood. This means every piece is entirely individual, bearing its own unique figuring, knots, texture, and grain. Each slab of wood that a knife is cut from is handpicked to assure durability, is making ready, and completely your own—No two are exactly alike.
