Here is one of my bushcraft style knives decked out with a handsanded and etched finish, Cocobolo scales and brass corby bolts. this one is a light, nice and thin, medium use utility knife!
OAL- 8 3/4"
blade- 4 1/4" long tip to scales, .090" thick at the spine, .032" measured 1/4" behind the edge, and .013" thick at the shoulder of the edge. 1" wide
steel- 1095 high carbon, differentially hardened. heat treat includes a double normalize, double anneal, triple edge quench and triple temper for a really nice performing blade that takes and holds a great edge and yet is easy to resharpen!
grind- a full flat grind, sharpened on a Smiths 325 diamond hone with micro bevels, to an agressive razor edge
finish- 400 grit handsanded finish, then etched in ferric to bring out the hardening line.
handle- Cocobolo with brass corby bolts. handle is finished with 200 grit with the lines running lengthwise with the handle so it looks good yet isn't slick
sheath- clean dyed leather, with copper rivets so there is no chance of cutting belt loop stitches
weight - 6.75 ounces for the total package of knife and sheath.
$230 plus $15 for shiping/insurance to CONUS. I can accept paypal Joe357m@bresnan.net or money order.
