Huginn is Odin’s raven of thought, and this knife is built for focused work. A contrasting black-and-white ebony pattern reflects the fluidity of mind, while the compact blade makes quick work of peeling, trimming, and other small tasks. Nimble and razor-sharp, Huginn is the kind of companion that makes a larger knife work harder.

Shamus Dotson

Shamus Dotson’s fascination with blades began as a kid watching Rurouni Kenshin, captivated by the samurai’s respect and admiration for their swords. At fifteen, he met Murray Carter, who took Shamus on as his apprentice when he moved to Oregon. “I’d never made knives before, but I was a hard worker, needed a job, and loved the creativity behind it.”

Two decades and more than 10,000 mostly forged knives later, Shamus continues to push the conventions of traditional kitchen knife making. His distinctive blade patterns, contoured handles, and unexpected color combinations have become hallmarks of his work. And he’s still finding new ways to experiment through his Signature collection.

San mai technique

Material selection
San mai (meaning three layers) involves utilizing two different steels to add strength and produce a striking visual effect.
Forge-welded cross section
These three layers are forge welded together and the layers become fused.
Finished blade
From this point the billet is forged into a blade shape and ground to reveal the inner core material.

Hand wash and dry No dishwasher

Hand wash your knife with warm water and mild dish soap when cutting tasks are finished. Dry immediately after use.

Under no circumstances place your knife in a dishwasher or leave it soaking for extended periods in the sink.

Following our general care instructions will help preserve your knife’s longevity and performance. Visit our care guide for additional information.

Please Note: High-carbon and mild-carbon steel will discolor and darken over time, especially in the presence of acidic foods. It’s normal for a blackish/blue patina to form due to oxidation. Patina tells the story of the unique relationship between a knife and its user.
