Original Trout Artwork • D2 Tool Steel • Brass Bolster
 
Born from the river, the sketchbook, and too many late nights in the shop, the RiverBorn Brown Edition is built on original artwork hand‑painted by Shane Gray. Every dot, stroke, and layered transition began as a physical painting before being translated into a high‑resolution scale pattern for production.
 
The Brown Edition carries the bold, warm geometry of a mature brown trout — deep golds, rich earth tones, and that unmistakable halo‑spotted pattern that defines the species. It sits on a premium platform of D2 tool steel, a solid brass bolster, and a sculpted 3D aluminum handle that feels as good as it looks.
 
This isn’t a mass‑market knife. It’s the product of obsession — design, color, texture, and form pushed until everything felt right. Built for anglers, makers, and anyone who appreciates gear with a story behind it.
