Final knife in a run of 5. My goal was to get a little weightier knife, while sticking with a full flat grind and very thin edge. Hence, the blade has a slightly wider spine with a lot of taper in both directions, putting most of the mass right under the pinch grip point. All of the pertinent info and geometry should be included below, but feel free to ask any questions you might have. Another BF user bought #1 of the run, and left little review on the other sale thread, http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/sh...4-5-quot-Petty. Email me at wheelepm@gmail.com if interested. I accept paypal, check/MO, or you can go on the site and pay by CC/debit. Thanks for looking!
