Slim Tasker and Sine qua non (Both Sold)

[Core Knife Co.]

Up for sale is my Slim Tasker pattern. I started out trying to come up with a paring knife. What I ended up with might be one of my favorite patterns. It's slim and sleek yet has the heft for any of your bush or hunting needs. I'm pretty excited about this.

This is a working knife. It has comfortable handles and feels light and quick in the hand. It has 4-1/2" handles and a 4" blade. It's contoured to fit comfortably in the hand for long periods of time. The blade is ground with a convex grind and a very sharp micro bevel. The price includes all Paypal fee's and shipping through USPS in the lower 48.

Price: $150w/ a leather sheath SPF

Specs:

9/64" 1095 Steel @ 58-60
Handles are Old Aged Ivory Micarta over .060" Orange G10 and 1/8" Dark Brown Paper Micarta
(3) 1/4" Natural Micarta Pins and (1) 1/8" Natural Micarta pins
OAL is 8-1/2"
Handle is 4-1/2"
Blade Length is 4"


I'm humbled and appreciative of you taking the time to stop by and look at my knives. Please feel free to comment.


















Next is my Sine qua non pattern. It's based loosely of my Corehart pattern only scaled way down. The idea was to come up with a easily carried small knife with enough muscle to perform all the big tasks. It has a fully contoured 3-3/4" handle behind a 2-7/8" blade. The overall shape of the handle is not restrictive and allows you many different options in the hand. There is a slight swell in the spine above the handle which sucks the knife into the palm. I think it's a handy little pattern. It's very comfortable.

It's convex sabre ground with a very sharp micro bevel.

No love for these two. I dropped the prices down. If they don't sell now I'll just donate them to the Goodwill.

[Mudbug007]

Great grab on the Slim Tasker. I've been waiting for one like that. I really like that blade shape and size. Nice work Michael!

[eginder]

Michael,

That Slim Tasker does look awesome! What is the blade width? Not the thickness, but the actual width? I'm trying to find something a bit slimmer than the woodlore-style knives I've been buying lately. That white micarta is just beautiful too.

Please make more!

Eric, at the widest part, just before the plunge, it's 15/16" So just a tad under 1".

Thanks for the comments.
