440C, Bone, and Leather

[Milt]

It has been awhile since I have posted anything, so I thought I would put up my latest. This is a heavy knife. It was made from 5/32 440C, but it was actually closer to 3/16. Hardened and tempered to 58RC. Hidden pins and Imistag scales. I left the edge thick- about .050" The finish was stopped after using a Norax 45 belt and finished with a Scotchbrite. I made the sheath after viewing Chuck Burrows DVD, which I found very helpful.

Comments welcomed.
