The William Henry B30 Gentac ‘Hornblower’ features beautiful bolsters in hand-forged 'Brain Wave' Damascus by Chad Nichols, inlaid with oak wood reclaimed during the restoration of the H.M.S. Victory.
One of the greatest pieces of naval history of all time, the H.M.S. Victory was sailed by Admiral Nelson in the victorious Battle of Trafalgar of 1805, when the British won, against overwhelming odds, against both the French and the Spanish fleets.
The ship was launched in 1765, and was instrumental in ensuring British naval supremacy during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It is the only surviving ship to have fought in both the American War of Independence and the French Revolutionary wars.
The blade is hand-forged 'Boomerang' Damascus by Chad Nichols; the one-hand button lock and the thumb stud are set with blue topaz gemstones.
