Columbia River 1150 Elishewitz Horus - Gold - Black

What can we say about the Columbia River Elishewitz Horus 1150, apart from wow. Just looking at the knife makes you feel like you have to hold it in your hands right away. The name Horus is familiar to Egyptologists as the hawk headed god/lord of the sky, imagine that kind of power all in the palm of your hand. When knife designer Allen Elishewitz created this new design he wanted something that would grab your attention straight away and make you not want to look away. You can definitely say that he captured that look perfectly with the 1150.

The knife comes with a 3.125” blade that is made out of AUS8 stainless steel and has a non reflective bead blast finish to prevent corrosion. The blade also has a partially swedged top edge with high hollow grind. To prove the authenticity of the knife you will notice on the blade the gold plated Elishewitz logo. The 1150 has a custom Elishewitz thumb stud which allows the knife to be opened with one hand with no effort needed at all. Never again will you have to mess about trying to gain access to the blade, when it is simply there for you when demand. Another good feature about the thumb stud in that it is ambidextrous, so no matter whether you are left or right handed, you will be able to use this knife no problem.

If you like to be the center of attention, then this really will be a good choice for you. The vibrant honey/gold swirled inlays in the handle really stand out. Once it has captured you attention, then you can be assured you will be hooked for life. The handle with its black textured zytel scales not only offers you a more comfortable hold of the knife, but you feel confident that no matter how hard you work it, you will always have a tight hold of it at all times.

If you are feeling a bit down in the dumps because of the cold and miserable weather. Just simply take a look at this knife and it will feel like you are carrying your own bit of sunshine with you.
