Product Description
For decades, Muela of Spain has provided the best and sharpest Hunting Knives. There is no doubt that hunting is intrinisically linked to the essence and tradition of Muela knives. Muela uses the latest in industrial techniques, including mechanized control centers and continuously working ovens, ideal for thermal treatment of different types of steel employed for the specific models. However, Muela also relies on a good number of artisanal experts, who are capable of achieving the artistic touches and finishes from natural materials such as antlers and exotic woods featured on many knife handles.Muela Colibri Full Tang Fixed Blade Knife, 155 mm, Stag Handle, Brass Bolster, Pins and Lanyard Hole Review
Muela (Spain) has been a somewhat overlooked in the U.S. as a manufacturer of quality knives. This is unfortunate, since the craftsmanship and design of this knife is as close to 'perfect' as I could wish for - a real functional 3" blade, meticulously ground, and shaving sharp out of the box. The stag handles are nicely proportioned for a three finger grip, and the slabs are beautifully matched.I have previously owned a Colibri with wood handles (purchased some 25 yrs ago) and even though I thought the the knife was well designed and functional, the wood scales were quite a bit thinner than these stag handles. The earlier Colibri had a flat ground blade; this knife blade is a bit thicker, and hollow ground. It feels larger in the hand than one would expect.
So when this blade went on sale at Amazon, I jumped on it, and am very glad I did. I prefer smaller blades for most work, and this pairs up very nicely with a Gransfors-Bruks Mini hatchet and a folding saw to do virtually anything I might want to do in the woods. (the GB Mini and a selection of bushcraft saws are both available on Amazon as well at very competitive prices).
This knife is now an 'official' permanent part of my woods kit !!!
