1080 and Osage Stick Tang Hunter

[Jason Fry]

Here's a stick tang hunter in 3/16" 1080, hand satin finished, RC 60. Handle is Osage, Bois d' arc, or whatever you call that wood where you're from. 416 guard with stainless and red G10 spacers and a domed stainless pin. Tooled sheath, my work. OAL 8 1/4 with a 3 3/8" blade. This knife is sole authorship, stock removal from bar stock. My heat treat. Heck, I even cut the osage myself. Price is $250 TYD.

We call that wood "Bo-dock" here in Alabama, and it is hard!!!

Beautiful knife btw.

Very nice. Right in the crook of an Osage tree
