3/16" O1 Steel Bushcraft Knives - Updated with finished knife!

[Daniel Fairly Knives]

I'm gonna make some...

I have 24' of precision ground 3/16" O1 steel coming in sometime next week for my take on Bushcraft knives.

I'm going to go 9" long and each one will be different than the next.

Everything will be done by me including the in house heat treatment in my digitally controlled kiln.

I have loads of G10 and micarta so it will be fun trying out all the different handle materials. For a little extra I will be offering handmade handle material in burlap and glow as well as other cool colors and layered materials.

It's going to be fun! I have a ton of new orders so this is more of a plan/side project at the moment, after I get caught up I will do a run.

They will not be traditional!

Bushcraft enthusiasts everywhere will first be startled, then alarmed, then converted.

OK... where is my steel! They need to hurry up! I ordered some from Aldo too, about a week later, I bet his comes in first.

Hey Daniel,

Just checked the tracking #. It will be there by the end of today.

It's in! Thanks Aldo! Now I can get a bushcraft prototype made as well as a bunch of kiridashis, neckers and other fun stuff.

I still haven't gotten to these yet but I haven't forgotten. I'm just really busy with orders.

I did grind out a prototype but it needs refinement. I just wanted you guys to know where I'm at!
