1095 and Bailey Laminate

Bailey Knives · May 10, 2009

I got a few different kinds of handle material and laminated them together. This one has received the best response. It is orange G10 and black linen micarta.

The steel is 1095 and it is my first knife in about 3 years that has no filework...gasp!. I fought the urge to put it on, and it was difficult, but it is just a straight plain spine on this one. I did give in to my hamon demons, and put one on this blade. I dont think I will ever stop that.

The sheath is kydex. I just recently got an eyelet press and some of Tom Krein's 8-8 stimpson eyelets. I really like the results. It has my own version of the Tec-Lock. The belt loop can be turned to carry horizontal or vertical.

Dimensions
Blade - 3 1/4" tip to handle
OAL - Just under 8"

Price - $170 shipped to USA. I prefer paypal but will accept check or money order.

The first "I'll take it!" gets it.

If only I could see one of your knives before somebody already got it.

Matt, I really like this. Hope to see some more like it. Give me a couple of weeks to get some more funds though! Really NICE!!

Bailey Knives · May 11, 2009

Mitchell, I got the payment. I will get it sent out asap.

Thanks

Pblaetz, I made a bunch more of this kind of handle material. I am planning on a few similar ones. I have one in black and yellow coming up soon. I kind of like it.

Bailey Knives · May 12, 2009

Mitchell, the knife is in the caring hands of the USPS.

I sent it priority, so you should have it before the end of the week.

Beautiful Knife, if it was a 4-6" with a recurve blade, I'd have been all over it. I love your Hamons!

Hargis Knives · May 14, 2009

very nice! I like your knives but am not a fan of filework. This one is awesome!

spiralarchitect · May 14, 2009

Argh, just when I thought I was done buying knives for a bit...........that laminate looks awesome. I am going to have to contact you soon about something along the same lines as the knife in the OP:thumbup:
