River Traders English Knife

Click here for more details on River Traders knives, and links to some reviews!

The English trade knife has a squared handle, as opposed to the rounded handle of the French-style knives, and more closely resembles the types of trade goods offered by English traders during Colonial times.  The longer blade makes this an excellent choice for butchering or more heavy-duty camp and wilderness tasks.
