Roselli RD300P The Hunting Knife, Damascus

Description

The Roselli RD300P Hunting Knife in Damascus is a masterpiece of Finnish craftsmanship, purpose-built for hunters who demand the very best. Rooted in an original 1976 design, this knife was created specifically for handling medium to large game, blending timeless form with serious field functionality. The blade is forged from over 1,000 layers of Damascus steel - a combination of Stenco Leuku, Fe 37 steel, and nickel - delivering exceptional edge retention and a striking, one-of-a-kind pattern on every blade.

The handle is crafted from beautifully stained curly birch, etched and treated with linseed oil to ensure a secure, confident grip even in wet conditions. Sterling silver 925 bolsters add a refined elegance that makes this knife as much a collector's piece as it is a working tool. Handcrafted, sharpened, and perfected by hand in Harmoinen, Finland, the RD300P represents the pinnacle of Roselli's knife-making tradition.

FAQ

What makes Damascus steel special compared to regular steel?

Damascus steel is created by forge-welding multiple layers of different steel alloys together, then folding and working them to produce a blade with hundreds - or in this case over 1,000 - distinct layers. This process creates a blade with a beautiful, unique surface pattern and combines the properties of each steel type, resulting in excellent edge retention, toughness, and strength. No two Damascus blades are identical, which also makes them highly prized by collectors.

Is this knife suitable for everyday hunting use or is it primarily a collector's piece?

The Roselli RD300P is genuinely both. Its original 1976 design was purpose-built for handling medium to large game, and the blade geometry, length, and weight all reflect that practical heritage. At the same time, the Damascus steel, sterling silver bolsters, and hand-finished curly birch handle make it a standout collector's piece. Many owners choose to use it in the field and display it at home - it is built rugged enough to earn that privilege.

How do I care for a Damascus steel blade?

Damascus steel requires a little more attention than stainless steel because it can be susceptible to oxidation. After use, clean and dry the blade thoroughly, then apply a thin coat of food-safe mineral oil or blade oil to protect the surface. Avoid leaving the blade wet or storing it in the leather sheath for extended periods without first drying it. With proper care, your Damascus blade will maintain its striking pattern and sharp edge for many years.

Is engraving available for this knife?

Yes - custom engraving is available for an additional $12 USD. Please note that custom-engraved knives may take up to 7 days from the date of purchase before they ship. This makes the RD300P an exceptional personalized gift for a hunter or outdoors enthusiast.

Will my knife look exactly like the one pictured?

Because both the Damascus blade and the curly birch handle are natural materials, each knife is unique. The pattern of the Damascus layers and the grain and color of the birch will vary from piece to piece. This is a feature, not a flaw - it means your knife is truly one of a kind, handcrafted specifically for you in Harmoinen, Finland.
