In the Middle Ages most of the nobility were devoted hunters. It was a sport that helped train for war as well as providing meat for the table. All of the huntsmen would prepare themselves for the hunt with a trousse. This large knife was used to dispatch the wounded animal, then dress out and carve the carcass. Sometimes the trousse was accompanied by a fork and a small knife for camp dining. Our trousse has a 12" long, 2" wide blade that will take and keep a razor edge. Both it, the small knife and fork are made of high carbon steel. Furniture is steel, while the grip is polished buffalo horn.
