Butcher in A2 and Mesquite <SOLD>

[John Cahoon]

Hey there everybody! Today I have a new butcher knife ready to go. Designed for a customer who ordered two a couple of months back and inspired by a classic old one I have. Hope you like it!

Steel is 3/32 thick x 1 1/8” tall in A2 Tool Steel. HT at 60/61. Hand sanded to 600 grit for a satin finish. The edge was around .010” before sharpening and it balances at the front of the bolster.

Dimensions: 13” OAL, Tip to guard is 7 3/8” and cutting edge is 7 1/8”.

Steel bolsters and mesquite make up the handle, set off with red and yellow G10 spacers and mosaic pins, and accented with red opalite inserts. The handle is finished to 1200 grit, oiled and waxed.

$230 to your US door, and of course your satisfaction is my only priority. Paypal, check or MO, and the price includes fees and free shipping in the US.

Thanks so much for looking and please feel free to ask anything here or via PM.
