Product description
The Monarch 'Congo' features a beautiful bolster in hand-carved Sterling silver, inlaid with fossil mammoth bone; the blade is hand-forged 'Hornets Nest' damascus by Mike Norris; the one-hand button lock and the thumb stud are set with smoky quartz.
The Monarch is a compact but versatile folder that works and presents beautifully in any situation; the design, which offers a deep finger groove at the intersection between the handle and blade, makes this knife remarkably comfortable in the hand while being very small and easy to carry.
The ‘Congo’ features some of the exotic materials, and hand-forged metals that are the hallmark of William Henry's collections; a timeless heirloom to be proudly worn and used for a lifetime before handing it down to another generation.
William Henry's natural fossil Mammoth bone is harvested in Alaska and Siberia, often from underwater. It is a rare and mesmerizing material, dating back between 6,000 and 10,000 years.
William Henry damascus billets are forged with a minimum of 300 layers. Hand forged from multiple alloys of stainless steel and heat treated to Rockwell 58-59 for excellent sharpness and edge retention.
William Henry works with the finest silversmiths to create elaborate and durable carvings in sterling silver. This sterling silver is soldered over a nickel silver frame and hand carved. Smoky Quartz gemstones are cut and inlaid with 18K gold bezels.
