The Story

BEHIND THE FIELD KNIFE NO.1 (GP) BY MIKE ROBINSON

“I approached the knife masters at Flint & Flame, who make all my chef knives, and asked if this was a project they could support – and they did…

As a professional Chef and hunter, knives are my main tool both in and out of the kitchen, and I could not understand why all the hunting knives on the market today seem to work poorly.

It seemed like most of them were designed to look cool, but blade shapes are not quite right, handles and guards are unwieldy, and steel is often too hard, preventing resharpening.

14 prototypes over 2 years have helped the development of this tool – the finished prototype then dressed over 400 deer, went through the dishwasher every time, is still razor sharp, and feels like an old friend.

This knife truly works!

Our Field Knife No.1 (GP) is currently being rigorously field tested by hardened professionals all over the world, from North America to New Zealand to Africa. The universal feedback is: No failures, no breakages, and here we have a knife for life…”

Field Knife No.1 (GP) by Mike Robinson

How the knife is made... The Field Knife No.1 (GP) is one of the first hunting knives designed for function and form by world renowned hunter, chef and owner of Michelin starred restaurants, Mike Robinson. Mike’s passion for ethical hunting and the well-being of the animal and species are as important to him as the quality of the food they provide. So, when it comes to the knife he chooses to use for his craft, it not only has to perform all the tasks asked of it to the highest of standards, but it must respect and honor the animal it’s being used on. After much deliberation, Sandvik 12 C 27 steel was settled on for the blade because of its perfect balance of properties. The Swedish steel is hard enough to take and hold a good edge, but has sufficient carbon to resharpen easily. 3mm thick, the blade is rigid and extremely strong. It is stainless enough to resist the corrosive elements of blood, and puts up with going through the dishwasher repeatedly. The handle is made from G10, a woven fibreglass style compound that is resistant to almost everything you can throw at it. The shotgun style checkering and vertical grooves give amazing grip, even when skinning a fatty Wild Boar. The slim Brass bolster is aesthetically pleasing and helps you find the knife if you put it down in the grass or on the ground. The signature cartridge in the butt of the knife is a British .303 by Hornady. This great calibre is an important part of Mike’s heritage and of course is a rimmed round, so it grips the tab of the sheath to secure the knife. Field Knife No.1 (GP) by Mike Robinson was designed without compromise and brought to life by Flint & Flame using our knife expertise. The result is the ultimate knife that Mike believes firmly, is the best hunting knife available.

“This is a great hunting knife with a noble design. It works precisely like a scalpel and will become my best hunting companion.”

Duncan Fraser: Cardrona Safaris New Zealand

“I just wanted to touch base after a busy hunting season here in New Zealand. I have put your knife through its paces for the past 5 months, and I can only say fantastic things about it.

Finally a great all purpose knife designed by a pro-fessional hunter for hunters. I will be ordering knives for all our professional hunt-ers here at Cardrona Safaris. Thanks again.”

The Sheath

Paired with the knife is an American-made sheath, meticulously hand crafted using premium cowhide. The design is thoughtfully executed to be both aesthetically pleasing and highly functional.

The distinctive signature tab securely grips over the .303 British cartridge, ensuring a snug and secure hold for the knife.

The Knife In Use

The Field Knife No.1 (GP) is expressly designed to facilitate the neat, clean dressing of your kills. The first element of dressing any animal is always the Bleed.

The drop pointed, sharp tip cleanly penetrates the skin and will effortlessly slide in to reach the aorta and major blood vessels.

On a big animal, the tapered guard will allow you to push the knife in as far as necessary to reach the blood vessels.

Next step is cutting out the reproductive organs and cutting around the anal sphincter.

This the knife does with ease, the ergonomic handle indexes the blade – indeed a veterinary friend of Mike’s told him that it was like using a scalpel!

Next the gutting stroke with a reversed blade. The drop point and lack of guard allows very precise cutting so no guts are punctured.

If no saw is available the blade is thin and strong enough to cut through a sternum with some effort and skill!

Removal of legs and head is easy – the curve of the blade nearest the guard keys into the joints and does the job really well.

Lastly the curved shape of the front of the blade makes for an amazing skinning tool.
