Chisholm’s Trail continues to bring our new knives and creative historical sheaths

THE SAVAGE

This very high quality knife has an Alabama Damascus Steel blade with a genuine Sambar stag hidden tang handle and brass guard. This will be our standard knife for the PRIMITIVE POUCH SHEATH. The blade is 6″ long, 3/16″ thick, and the handle is 4 1/2″-5″ long. However, you can get this sheath made for any knife size we offer-or one of yours. We can also make any of our sheaths to fit the new Savage knife. Very limited supply – call for pricing.

Primitive pouch sheaths shown with natural “Rustication” hand tooling. The knife stays secure in the pouch without a retaining strap. As shown, small and medium ~ $99.95 without knife. Sheaths occasionally available with knives- POR.

 

CHISHOLM’S TRAIL IS NOW ONE OF THE LAST BUCKLE MAKER’S IN AMERICA

This month we celebrate our 67th buckle. Who knew that when we decided to make our first one because we could not find a cowboy buckle that said “Made in USA” that we would now offer almost 70 buckles. That is a lot to keep in stock. If they say “in stock” they are. If they do not say that then we are in the process of making a new mold because they do not last forever. We are going to try to put one style of buckle on sale each month to encourage folks to see the really good quality that our foundry produces. Our buckle this month will be the

“TEXAS RANGER”

This buckle will be discounted to $39.95. If a belt is purchased the buckle price will drop to $29.95. Each buckle is “thick” hand cast in the USA from virgin brass not melted down artillery shells like so many are. The original was hand engraved by a gunsmith and deeply relieved. It has an ergonomic tongue, curved to sit better on the belt. Currently they are available in yellow brass or are commercially  nickel plated.
