I was asked by an BP agent's family to come up with a knife that didn't make him look like Rambo; here it is:

3/16" O1 approx. 60HRC
7.75" OAL
3.25: blade
Green canvas Micarta (faceted to index in the hand)
Fairly straight hollow grind to put more steel at the tip
Exposed tang
416 pins

Sold shipped PP to Sharpwerksatgmaildotcom

That's a good looking knife, do you use other steels, besides O1? And do you have a method to "darken" the knife (blueing/coating)? Thank you.

I am using mostly A2 and D2. I have not tried blueing D2 but I can 01 and A2.

Added Spine picture.
