Stats
Blade and Fittings Forged from 1" diameter 16x9 IWRC Extra Improved Plow Steel Cable
Blade Length: 3.5";
Blade Width @ Ricasso: 1";
Blade Thickness; Roughly 1/8";
Total Length: 7.5" (excluding ferro rod assemby) - 8.25" fully assembled;
Ferro rod Assembly: 3"
Handle Material: WSSI Stabilized Maple Burl

This is a gift for my Brother-in-law's birthday. He is an avid hiker/camper, so I thought this Erik Boese inspired knife with integrated firestarter might come in handy.

The rod is hidden in the butt.:eek:

Just screw it in and out:

The rod assembly was pinned, then hard soldered together:

Thanks guys.

I'm a bit concerned that it is in concept too similar to Erik's Sparky.

I suppose that Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but I still don't want to piss anyone off.. and want to give credit where credit is due.

thanks for the inspiration Erik.
 
I'm all good with it. Great job! Hell, I like it better than mine. But v2.0 will be out soon. Threaded cap (not as nice as yours though :)) and some nicer handle shaping since I'm not tied to a customer for the new ones :D
