Bona Knives Frontier Smooth Antler is one of the most popular projects carried out in the workshop of Marcin Bona.
Frontier is a knife bordering on reality and imagination. On the one hand, it is a tangible, great utility tool that can be sharpened on a roadside stone if needed. On the other hand, it is a talisman that will take us into the world of imagination, childhood memories filled with playing trappers and adventurers. And it is really hard to resist the impression that Frontier was “brought alive” from the border, where just a moment ago he was helping his owner in the hardships of survival.
Frontier knives are made of steel that can be easily sharpened in the field (NCV1), which goes back to the past of cutlery and the art of using knives. The blades have a variety of fancy finishes and patterns. Each of them is unique and one of a kind. In the knifemaker’s dictionary, this type of finish is referred to as “chaotic satin coated with random oxidation”. These treatments and amphibian roughness are performed in an original way by a knifemaker. The handles are mainly made of deer antlers dyed by the creator and have a leather wrapping prepared by a knifemeker in a way that guarantees resistance to weather conditions. Sheaths made of natural vegetable tanned leather (cowhide and deer chamois) have a variety of colors and accessories individually selected for each project by the creator. The Frontier is a knife that appears to have many irregularities at first glance, but is in fact planned in every unevenness and roughness from start to finish by the creator.

About presented execution od Frontier knife
Universal blade
The knife blade, profiled in the drop point style, with a flat grind, in use is very effective and recommended for all types of work. The NCV1 steel used as the core of the structure is characterized by good sharpness. One of its most important features is very high fracture resistance, hence it is eagerly used in bushcraft knives. This steel is easy to sharpen, which is undoubtedly an advantage when there is a need to perform this activity in the field. The edges of the spine of the blade are sharply finished (but not so cut that it is easy to cut yourself), allowing you to work efficiently with the flint.
The finish of the blade (chaotic satin, random oxidation, roughness of the amphibian) made in an original way by a knifemaker, apart from the unique visual effect, has the advantage that it fits perfectly with the traces of use of the blade. The Frontier knife is designed in such a way that the signs of wear on it give it a taste and individual character, and finally they fit “as if they were meant to be” from the beginning.
The Frontier knife has a full-tang construction, the strongest construction found in knives. The knife tang extends over the entire handle to which the covers are attached.
Handle from deer antlers
The handle, made of deer antlers, dyed brown, is different in each Frontier version. The pores and cavities visible on it are completely natural, they were not “lost” during the refinement of the handle. The covers are permanently attached to the steel core. They are glued and attached with decorative pins. At the junction of the handle with the blade, a natural leather wrapper was made. The wrapper specially prepared by the creator is as hard as the rest of the handle, it is tight and resistant to weather conditions. The wrapper, in addition to the decorative function, has the function of “handle – safety controller”. Namely, when we hold the knife in our hand, we feel roughness under our fingers and this roughness marks the border between the handle and the blade. For a user “tame” with his knife, it is an additional safety feature that prevents the hand from sliding over the cutting edge and prevents hand injuries in this way.
