The stacked leather handle was inspired by a Marbles Gladstone Skinng Knife made in the 1920's owned by Baker, into which finger grooves were molded.  The blade was typically parkerized or blackened to reduce glare. This was done so by applying a dark gun-blue finish (similar to those used on guns) on this carbon steel knife.
