The Keanison Knives Basset Hound is an exceptional folding knife that combines premium materials, precision engineering, and outstanding craftsmanship in a compact, collector-worthy design. Featuring a stunning Baker Forge Stainless Copper Damascus blade, titanium handles, Mokume rear bolsters, a Damascus pocket clip, and premium Skiff bearings, this Basset Hound showcases an impressive combination of intricate metalwork and functional engineering.
This particular example is Serial #39 of 100, with a date of birth of October 29, 2026, making it a distinctive addition to any serious knife collection.
At the heart of the Basset Hound is its remarkable 2.7-inch Baker Forge Stainless Copper Damascus blade. This specialty blade material incorporates layers of stainless steel with copper inlays throughout the Damascus pattern, creating an extraordinary combination of flowing patterns, metallic textures, and warm copper accents. The copper contrasts beautifully against the surrounding steel, giving the blade a distinctive appearance that highlights the artistry and craftsmanship involved in its creation.
The blade measures 0.15 inches thick, providing a substantial feel while maintaining the manageable proportions of a compact folding knife. Its distinctive Damascus construction makes it as visually impressive as it is functional, appealing to collectors who appreciate unusual materials and intricate blade patterns.
One of the defining features of this Basset Hound is its premium Skiff bearing system. Skiff bearings are highly regarded among knife enthusiasts for their precision construction and smooth operation. The bearing system contributes to fluid blade movement and a refined mechanical feel, complementing the knife's carefully engineered construction.
The Titanium handles provide a strong, lightweight foundation that balances durability with a refined appearance. Titanium is prized for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and precision-machining capabilities, making it an ideal material for premium folding knives.
Adding to the knife's exceptional appearance are the beautiful Mokume rear bolsters. Mokume-gane is a layered metal material known for its flowing, woodgrain-like patterns and rich metallic color variations. The intricate Mokume patterns complement the copper Damascus blade, creating a cohesive design that blends traditional metalworking artistry with modern knife construction.
The attention to detail continues with a distinctive Damascus pocket clip, adding another premium material to this already impressive configuration. Rather than using a conventional pocket clip, the Damascus construction provides additional patterning and visual character, complementing the blade and rear bolsters.
With an overall length of 6.7 inches and a closed length of 4 inches, the Basset Hound offers a compact, pocket-friendly profile. The handle measures 0.55 inches thick, providing a substantial gripping surface, while the knife weighs approximately 4.1 ounces. These dimensions create a well-balanced combination of manageable carry size and premium construction.
The combination of Baker Forge Stainless Copper Damascus, Titanium, Mokume, and Damascus hardware makes this Basset Hound a standout piece. Each material contributes its own unique appearance, creating a knife that rewards close inspection and showcases the level of detail associated with premium collectible folding knives.
What makes this particular example even more desirable is its individual identification. Marked Serial #39 of a 100-piece run and featuring a date of birth of October 29, 2026, this Basset Hound has documented production details that add to its collectible character.
Whether you're a dedicated Keanison collector or simply appreciate exceptional materials and precision craftsmanship, this Basset Hound offers an impressive combination of artistry, engineering, and distinctive design.
