The Medford San is a rugged, purpose-built knife that pays tribute to the San people—some of the earliest known bushcraft practitioners of Southern Africa. Designed with a deep respect for traditional survival skills, the San embodies simplicity and strength through its full-tang construction, ensuring maximum durability, perfect balance, and all-day comfort, even under the harshest conditions. Its uncoated blade isn't just a stylistic choice—it allows for effective use with a ferrocerium rod, making it a reliable fire-starting tool in the field.
A fire divot integrated into the handle enhances its bushcraft utility by enabling bow-drill fire starting, while the ergonomic shape ensures a secure and comfortable grip whether you're carving, chopping, or carrying it over long distances. Every detail is crafted with function in mind, including the premium, American-made top grain leather sheath. Designed in a traditional drop-style, the sheath offers versatile carry options—whether on a belt or attached to a harness—making the Medford San an essential companion for those who live close to the land.
