Russ Kommer Custom Pearl

Russ Kommer is the maker of this beautiful knife. Russ Kommer of Fargo, North Dakota, has been a commercial hunting guide since 1980. He started making knives when one of his hunter clients brought a custom knife and dressed an entire moose without sharpening it. He began working with noted Alaskan knife maker John Shore, who took Russ into his shop and showed him how to grind. He began making his own line of knives in 1997, and his custom catalog shows a range of fixed blade knives, including Bowie and Camp Knives, Fillet Knives, Hunters, Fighters and Boot Knives, all available with a variety of exotic handles and with engraving. He is the designer of the CRKT Bear Claw, Big Eddy, a growing number of hunting knives including our Pro and Signature Hunters and the assisted opening Full Throttle. He says, “I set out to make a quality knife that would perform and be comfortable to handle. I have found knife making to be my calling, and would like to thank all the people who have helped me along the way!”

  • Full Throttle
