Overview

The Capricorn, one of our signature designs, is only produced to the highest level of fit and finish. Our Prime series represents the pinnacle of manufacturing by the most renowned makers. Combining the two is a monumental task. Exemplifying our highest standards, the Capricorn Prime delivered a striking display of design and performance.

Jared Oeser seamlessly blends the best of old and new design cues with exacting tolerances to produce stunning heirloom quality knives. The Capricorn Prime is thoroughly modern, but feels like a classic design in hand. Precision tolerances equate to a concert of parts when deploying the front flipper of the flawless hand rubbed spearpoint blade. Made from striking Mike Nichols Hornets Nest Damascus it rides on ceramic bearings when opening and is held fast by a ceramic detent when closed. 

The handle assembly is a beautiful integration of materials and construction. The integral Zirconium bolsterlock frame has Black Paper Westinghouse triple fuller inlays in Black Fiber Westinghouse handle and pivot. The pivot itself is stunningly constructed with custom titanium with matching Black Fiber Westinghouse and surrounded by a zirconium plate with our logo laser etched. 

Finer details include the Oeser logo laser etched into the spine of the blade and a matching Mike Nichols Hornets Nest Damascus floating backspacer. 

The Capricorn Prime Oeser Edition is a one of a kind masterpiece that will excel as a centerpiece of a collection for generations to come.
