Overview
The Mackinaw is a compact, high-performance fixed blade hunting knife designed for versatility in the field. Built by bladesmith Kris Duerson, it delivers the strength of a full-size hunting knife in a streamlined, easy-to-carry profile.
Named after the Straits of Mackinac—where Michigan’s peninsulas meet and the Great Lakes collide—the Mackinaw reflects a rugged, no-nonsense approach to outdoor use.
Ideal for field dressing deer, general camp tasks, and everyday carry in the outdoors, this knife hits the perfect balance: compact enough for all-day wear, yet durable enough for demanding work.
Satin finished blade with false top edge, .175" blade stock and .991" blade depth, full tang construction. The handle has elk antler scales with brass pins. Comes with original box and brown leather sheath. Excellent condition.
