I've been a bit slower than I'd like in getting some knives finished to show here (as always with me...), but I have number 5 in the Soloist model completed.
Specs:
6.75"OAL, 2.75" tip-to-plunge, 1.0625" at tallest
1095 steel @.125" thick full flat grind with convexed edge.
scales: orange G10 with stainless pins, and relief-cut lanyard hole @ rear.
sheath: a little different than past sheaths, due to getting some thicker leather on hand. It is 9oz natural veg. tanned leather with integral belt loop. I have glued and stitched the seams. I've dyed the leather and treated with a light coat of neatsfoot oil. sheath pocket is made symmetrically so it can be re-wet-formed for left-hand carry (I've gotta try and take care of other southpaws )
Thanks for looking,
Ben
