Gil Hibben Custom “Alaskan Hunter”

During his Alaska period (1970–1975), Gil Hibben did not use numeric model codes or stylized commercial line names for his custom pieces; instead, he named his handmade knives directly after their functional design profile.

Gil Hibben Custom “Alaskan Hunter” / “Alaskan Survival Knife”: This is the primary designation for his medium-to-large drop-point/clip-point hunting and field utility knives made in Alaska with a brass guard and pommel.
