Bohler N 690...finished the first 2 knives out of it

[zingzong2005]

Hey guys,

I mostly use O1,52100 or similar carbon steels..

But I thought I give Bohler N690 a try

really cool stainless steel

holds a good edge, cuts well, easy to sharpen,kind of easy to work with

both are from 0.2" thick stock

made this one as a N690 testknife for myself:



coarse textured G10 scales
OAL: 6.7"
pretty basic kydex... good enough to carry around

so far I really dig N690
especially now
very humid over here and still no rust or stain or whatsoever on the blade/tang

and the STABBER:





OAL: 9"
beadblasted
micarta scales

Will probably use N690 more often from now on
