I developped a kind of obsession about Chute knives during the last months. Here’s the result of my first custom order at Wesley Liversage Knives in South Africa. I wanted to go for an early Archer/Loveless Chute design and because I absolutely love the grind line with the swedge. As you can see, Wesley just nailed it at the backstand ! The holes in the guard are more of an homage to the original Loveless knife than a usefull feature to me. I had hard times to choose the micarta color and decided to go for light brown/yellowish canvas micarta instead of the more usual green and black. End result is looking awesome especially with the matching color leather sheath. For now, I can’t tell about N690 steel and treatment but I’m sure I’ll enjoy to use it in the wild.
Last but not least, Wesley is a fantastic maker to deal with and quality/price ratio for such a knife is just insane !
