Bush Monkey Model 1 - Work In Progress - ON DUTY -

[BMK]

Model 1: 9.25 OAL, 3/16 01 tool steel, convex bevel - NO SECONDARY BEVEL. The G10 handle will stop just before the lanyard hole on this one so the exposed butt end of the tang can be used as a striking tool/weapon. This one is ready for some heat. This one got an clued and etched blade, bead blasted OD G10, stainless corby bolts and flared stainless tubing. This particular Model 1 will makes its home on a SWAT Officer's duty vest.

Thanks for looking.

Thank you for taking the time and effort to look and comment. The Bush Monkey Model 1 has enjoyed a vigorous response. Putting a tool into service with an opportunity to do good is especially rewarding.

Whats the blade finish? I like it, its like a cross between a blue and bleach and forge scale look.

Thank you. It is blued AND etched.
