Irish-made bushcraft knife is a serious piece of kit

A handmade knife by Co. Roscommon knife maker Paddy Smyth makes for a fantastic gift for Father’s Day and beyond. Smyth’s range of knives includes some beautiful kitchen knives, as well as a range of bushcraft and camping knives perfect for those who enjoy time spent in the great outdoors. Known for his use of ancient Irish bog oak, Smyth’s knives not only look great but are really practical too. This bushcraft knife is made from 2.5 mm 15n20 high carbon steel and features a hammered textured blade. The handle is made from Irish bog oak which is estimated to be between six- and 8,000 years old, with copper handle liners and brass pins. The sheath is made from premium Italian leather and the knife comes in a wooden presentation box. €189. smythknives.com
