A peen is the end of the head of a hammer that is opposite the face and is used for bending, shaping, or cutting the material struck. It is often used to fix, or flatten, the pins that hold the bolsters in place. A natural part of that process is to lay a piece of leather over the knife to protect the bolster as the pin is peened. Canal Street has taken their idea for this unusual knife handle from that process.

Late in 2007, Canal Street Cutlery introduced an exciting new design by well-known knifemaker D'Alton Holder.

The Bowie Hunter is the largest knife ever produced by Canal Street Cutlery. It was designed for CSC by knifemaker D'Alton Holder of Peoria, AZ. This is a very useful integral knife with lots of sweeping curve for the belly; a great skinner and a fine camp knife.

Yes, it is an unusual name for a knife. When we asked Wally Gardiner, President of Canal Street Cutlery where the name came from, he told us "because the extra large cap on the knife looks like a half moon." It is a beautiful knife, put together with the attention to detail and fine finish you have become accustomed to from Canal Street Cutlery.
