Walnut handle and Olive handle both have the 288-layer Damascus blade (15N20 and 1080 steel) and differ in the wood of the handle. D2 Steel has a D2 steel blade in the same shape and a walnut handle. All three are the same size: 10 inches overall with a 5 inch blade.

Excellent product! No issues whatsoever. I'd gladly make the purchase again if needed. Simply gorgeous.
Jackson F.
I got it for bushcraft activities, haven't tested it yet, but it seems sturdy. I was afraid the handle might be too short for me since I have large hands, but in the end, it's the perfect size.
Carter D.
I purchased this as a gift for my father, and he used it on his Elk hunt, praising both its utility and beauty.

The patented Predator Hunter shape in D2 tool steel rather than Damascus: the same 10 inch frame, the same 5 inch modified drop point, the same walnut handle, finished to an even satin grey with no pattern. It is the least expensive way into the shape.

Handcrafted
Every Bigcat knife is handcrafted, not made on a factory line, and the Predator Hunter is a patented design. This version has a D2 tool steel blade with a satin finish instead of Damascus.
The Blade
The 5 inch blade is D2 tool steel with a plain satin finish, in the same shape and size as the Damascus Predator Hunter.
- 5 inch modified drop-point blade with a single edge
- Fixed blade, partial tang
- 10 inches long overall
- Weighs about 6.2 oz (175 g)
Handle and Guard
The handle is contoured to fit the hand and has a lanyard hole at the end. A steel finger guard sits where the handle meets the blade.
The handle is walnut wood, 5 inches long.
The Sheath
Every knife comes with a hand-stitched leather sheath with a crocodile-texture leather inlay. It carries vertically on your belt, and a snap strap holds the knife in place.
Keep the blade dry and lightly oiled, and let the knife and the sheath dry before you put the knife away.

Bigcat vs a typical factory knife
Most hunting knives at this money are cut from one bar of stainless, finished by machine and packed with a nylon pouch. Yours is forged from two steels, finished by hand and carried in leather that was stitched for it. Here is the difference, line by line.

OUR STORY
Built for the wild ones who won't settle
Bigcat is made for the people who ask the most of their gear: hunters out before first light, campers who keep going where the trail ends, and collectors who can tell real Damascus from a print at a glance.
Every knife is designed in the USA and handcrafted by skilled craftsmen in Wazirabad, Pakistan, a city known for its knife makers for centuries. The one you carry is made to be used in the field and kept for good.
-
Designed in the USA
Each Bigcat is designed here, for hunting, camping and everyday work outdoors.
-
Handcrafted in Wazirabad
Skilled craftsmen with generations of experience make every knife by hand, not on a factory line.
-
Real Damascus steel
288 layers of 15N20 and 1080, forge-welded and folded, so the pattern runs through the steel instead of sitting on top.
-
Made to be collected
No two blades share a pattern. Carry yours into the field, or give it a place in your collection.
THE KNIFE
What makes a Bigcat different?
Handcrafted, not factory made
Made by hand by skilled craftsmen, so every knife has its own character.
Real 288-layer Damascus

FAQ
What is the difference between Walnut handle, Olive handle and D2 Steel?
How big is the knife?
About 10 inches (25.4 cm) overall. The blade and the handle are each about 5 inches (12.7 cm), and the knife weighs about 6.2 oz (175 g).
Does it come with a sheath?
Yes. It comes with a hand-stitched leather sheath that carries vertically on a belt, with a snap strap to hold the knife in.
Will my knife look exactly like the photos?
The shape, the handle and the sheath will. On the Walnut handle and Olive handle versions the Damascus pattern will not, because it comes out different on every blade.
Do you ship outside the US?
Not at the moment. Shipping is free on US orders. Orders are processed in 2 to 3 business days and delivered in 3 to 7 business days after that.
What are the warranty and return policy?
The knife has a 12-month warranty against defects in workmanship and materials. You can also ask for a return within 30 days of delivery if the knife is unused and in its original packaging. Email customerservice@bigcatroar.com to start one. Return shipping is paid by the customer.

Good knife, but you'll need to sharpen it yourself
Good quality steel that maintains a nice edge, with a pleasant handle and sheath. However, the knife arrived quite dull—I couldn't even cut cold butter. Since the blade had a lot of material, it took some time to bring it to a satisfying edge. Despite that, I'm very happy with the knife, and I haven't needed to touch up the edge since the initial sharpening.

Solid knife
I got it for bushcraft activities, haven't tested it yet, but it seems sturdy. I was afraid the handle might be too short for me since I have large hands, but in the end, it's the perfect size.

Ideal knife for larger hands and boasts excellent steel
I purchased this as a gift for my father, and he used it on his Elk hunt, praising both its utility and beauty. Unfortunately, I don't have any photos of it in action, but the D2 steel sharpened up beautifully. I put my own edge and a 50,000 grit diamond polish on it before sending it off. I was impressed with the heat treat; it was some of the most unforgiving D2 I've ever sharpened. It achieved a shaving edge and has not needed stropping in over 6 months. A great knife for those with big hands or those who struggle with smaller tools. Well worth the money.
