Patrick Joseph – Bushman Evo Knife (SKU: PJHMCK-116)

A Signature Bushcraft Blade for the Field, the Trail, and the Hand
The Bushman Evo by Patrick Joseph is a purpose-built evolution of the classic camp and hunting knife — designed to offer maximum control, compact strength, and reliable performance in the wild. Whether skinning game, preparing food, carving wood, or handling daily trail tasks, this blade excels in precision and balance. Handmade in Ireland, this piece is forged from cryo-quenched RWL34 — a Swedish powder steel enhanced through advanced heat treatment for edge stability and cutting performance far beyond standard stainless alloys.

Material Excellence, Tailored by Hand
Irish Walnut Handle – Native Hardwood with Deep Grain and Natural Balance
Harvested from Irish-grown walnut trees, this timber is naturally stable, deeply grained, and rich in tone. Comfortable to hold and beautiful to look at, it provides both ergonomic function and a tactile connection to Ireland’s landscape. Each handle is shaped, contoured, and polished by hand to maximise its grip and grain.

Cryo-Quenched RWL34 Damasteel – Ultra-Refined Edge Through Thermal Precision
RWL34 is a high-alloy powder steel engineered for professional-grade performance. It is heat treated and then cryo-quenched — a specialised deep-freezing process that cools the steel to temperatures below -196°C. This treatment transforms retained austenite into martensite, a much harder and more stable steel structure. The result is a hunting knife with outstanding edge retention, superior toughness, and significantly improved wear resistance — even in the most demanding outdoor conditions.

Key Attributes of Cryo-Quenched RWL34 Damasteel:
• Razor-sharp edge with elite hardness and durability
• Deep cryogenic treatment enhances steel stability at the microstructure level
• Ultra-fine grain structure – responds beautifully to honing and stropping
• Excellent corrosion resistance in wet or woodland environments
• Designed for hard, repeated use in hunting, carving, and field tasks

The Shamrock Pin – A Signature of Irish Craft
Set at the centre of the handle is the Shamrock Pin — a mark of heritage and authenticity in the Patrick Joseph collection. It symbolises tradition, intention, and a deep respect for where and how a blade is made.

Handmade Leather Sheath – Field-Ready Protection with Natural Patina
Each Bushman Evo includes a handmade leather sheath designed for safe, comfortable carry. Crafted to hold the knife securely while aging gracefully, this sheath darkens and softens with use — becoming a storybook of your time outdoors.

Built by Hand in Ireland
Every Patrick Joseph knife is built by hand in Ireland, guided by a commitment to precision, discipline, and detail. The process is deliberate, the standards exacting — resulting in a hunting knife that performs flawlessly and endures through time.
