War Eagle Blades 3-3/4" Copperhead Yellow Delrin
Item #: WEB-HC301YD
$34.95
We found that one of the makers we trust to make our finest A. G. Russell™ designs was also making reasonably priced traditional folders. We arranged for them to make a series of traditional patterns for our War Eagle Blades™ brand. These knives are made to the highest standards possible at the price levels shown. They are great using knives.
The blade steel is 7Cr17MoV at 54-56 Rc. This is very similar to the steel used in the Uncle Henry knives before the bankruptcy of Schrade Cutlery. The blades are easily sharpened with Ceramic, India Stone (Aluminum Oxide), Arkansas Stone, or Diamonds. Holds an edge quite well. The liners are brass and the bolsters, caps and double bomb shield are nickel silver.
We put these knives through the same rigid inspection that we put the A. G. Russell™ knives through. You can depend on the quality. The fit and finish is equal to knives costing twice as much and they carry the same outstanding Guarantee as those marked A. G. Russell™. Made in China.

War Eagle Blades
War Eagle Blades is a trademark of ours. The brand we have chosen is reflective of the 1970s when I was selling War Eagle Whetstones from my farm on War Eagle Creek, here in Northwest Arkansas. Knives with the W.E.B. ™ mark will be made to meet our standards of quality and value. The prices will vary widely and production will be from around the world, wherever we find knives that meet our quality and design standards, and will include both folders and fixed blades. We will not mark any handmade knife with the W.E.B. ™ mark. You will be hard pressed to find a better value knife at this quality.
WEB-HC301YD War Eagle Copperhead - Very nice fit & finish overall. Especially for a knife of this price. There were some dark marks, on the bolsters, where they meet the scales. I'm guessing they are from polishing the transition too aggressively.
Changes:
Not much, except the bolster marks but that's no big deal. I only mention so you'll know. I have several Case and Buck knives and this knife is built just as good, or better.
