Back in 2011, Taylor Guitars became the co-owner of the Crelicam ebony mill in Cameroon. This one step set into motion a remarkable journey to learn every aspect of the ebony trade, including its impact on the forest ecosystems of Africa’s Congo Basin. Fast-forward to 2019, Buck Knives is proud to partner with Taylor Guitars and reintroduce ebony, a dense, black hardwood, to their classic knives. This natural material features beautiful grain patterns so that each knife showcases natures best designs. The ebony is harvested using sustainable practices, and it is a brilliant, eco-minded step forward for creating classic tools and pocket knives. You can learn more about the knives at the Post Falls showroom at Buck Knives HQ, or check out their Instagram feed. //
