5.5" Nkonka Prototype

[MVG]

I met Chris Reeve at the California Custom Knife Show last weekend and had a chance to talk about CRK history. During this discussion
Chris mentioned he had a very special knife for sale. It was a prototype 5.5" Nkonka produced for a drop forge project. I will let Chris's
letter below explain the details. Of course, I could not pass up this unique knife.

That would be one sweet fixed blade.

What steel was used?

The only one is quite special.

wow - I am not a "fixed knife guy", but I WANT that one!

Very nice pick up.

I would love that one in my collection.

Thanks everyone...

I only have two CRK one piece knives. The other is a well used South African made Aviator.

What steel was used?

The knife steel is A2 with D655 aluminum for the end cap.

Thanks so much for sharing this! It is truly a cool piece to have and behold. I almost have all the "normal" CRK OPR knives as I'm totally obsessed with these beauties. Thanks again.
