The Appalachian is a design I developed for those of you who asked, “When is Emerson ever going to build a hunter?”  Well, I always regarded all of my knives as hunting knives.  They were just intended for another kind of animal.  Actually there are a number of Emerson designs that work very well in the role of a conventional hunting knife.  In fact, the world's largest lion was skinned with an Emerson Commander.  But, I never have designed a knife that was for game and hunting as its first and primary purpose,  Until Now. The Emerson Appalachian is just that knife.  With a graceful upswept trailing point for delicate areas, enough belly for the hard work, and the Emerson ergonomic handle, this knife provides the perfect hunter's package.  Growing up in the deep woods of Northern Wisconsin, I know hunting as well as I know anything and this is a knife I wish I'd had in those woods when I took my first deer at 12 years of age.  “Son, you shot it.  You dress it” were the words I remember my Dad saying to me as I placed my Winchester Lever Action 30-30 carbine against a nearby tree.  I wish I'd had an Appalachian back then.  I just might have done a better job of skinning that first deer, maybe.

    I snagged one of these as soon as they became available; as an avid hunter and outdoors-man it wasn't even up for debate. I haven't gotten it out into the deer woods yet, but I cannot wait. The profile, smooth action of the lock-up and deployment; plus the beautiful simplicity make this a stand-out for a pocket companion should you find yourself cleaning wild game or just hiking in your local back-forty. Enjoy!

    This knife is perfect for Hunting, Survival, Camping, or any other outdoorsman activities. I’ve also heard from several people that they use this knife in their garden for pruning. Although marketed as a hunting knife, this blade would be right at home processing wood for a fire, prepping food, and all your other camp tasks and bushcrafting tasks

    This knife is so much more than a hunter. It is my full time edc and to be honest I wouldn’t mind it being that way from now on. Razor sharp right out of the box, flips out smooth as butter, and will take on any job you throw at it. You really can’t go wrong.

    Wow!!! Just received this beautiful knife yesterday! Hair splitting razor sharp from the factory. Mechanism is silky smooth and the knife flies open with authority! The handle fits my XXL hands perfectly! Thanks, Emerson!

    I've had this knife for almost 2 weeks. I couldnt be happier. I own many Emersons and i have to say this is the smoothest of them all. I didnt make any adjustments and it flies out when flicked or waved. I had a chance to put it to use in the field yesterday and dressed a deer on last day of archery. It performed amazing!!! cut well even through some bone. It cleaned up beautiful! A couple passes on the steel and shes back to hair popping sharp! What a great all around design! Buy one before its too late!!!!
