Lamoureux and Sons SHEFERVILLE, Cocobolo, Hunting Knife

Description

The ground in Shefferville is permafrost, which means it is frozen all year round. The most abundant type of vegetation over there is caribou lichen which feeds the gigantic population of almost one million heads. There is so many of them in Shefferville that residents often see tracks on the street and in their backyard. That does not mean these huge animals are an easy kill, only the most experienced and toughest hunters will come back with a decent trophy.

LAMOUREUX & SONS

For already more than 10 years LAMOUREUX & SONS knives are handcrafted by craftsmen from Quebec, Canada. The fabrication of each piece is comprised of more than 60 steps and numerous quality controls. All blades are made from S-30V stainless steel sourced from the reputed foundries of Crucible Steels. This alloy is one of the best performing in terms of cutting while maintaining its edge remarkably. Hand guards are crafted from Type 416 stainless steel, this alloy being used for its rigidity and resistance to corrosion. The handles all have ergonomic design features and are sculpted from either cocobolo or Madagascar Ebony, two wood species carefully selected for their hardness, resistance and mostly for their high oil contents which renders our handles stable and virtually impossible to rot. The unique shape of each model’s handle has been studied and developed to provide a comfortable and safe grip in hand during each model’s specific intended use. The handles are secured to the blade permanently using distinctive decorative rivet pins. Every piece is protected by a full-grain leather sheath, hand-stitched by our craftsmen.
