Helvie Knives, Gerald Sears Roughout Palm Wood Carving Knife With Leather Sheath. This palm knife has a Gerald Sears handle design. This knife was purchased new between 2009 and 2011. It has never been carved with. It is the same as a new knife. The reduced handle length makes it ideal to carry in your shirt pocket. The roughout blade is the normal length of 1 3/4". but the Pakkawood handle has been reduced to 3 5/8". Roughly 1 3/8" shorter. The leather sheath has the Helvie name burnt/branded in a script font. This is an authentic Helvie wood carving knife.
