First up is a Case's Tested XX,made from 1932-40 according to the Case tang stamp chart seen here.
I re-handled it in Oak & gave it a killer convex edge.
OAL is 12" & the cutting edge is 6 3/4".
Overall thickness is 5/32".
The scales are held on with G Flex Epoxy & 1/4" peened brass pins.
It'll chop & slice in the kitchen or camp.
$50.00--shipping & fees on me.
Next up is a Village Blacksmith I modded a bit.
I was going to cut it down to a profile like the Case above,but decided to cut the top corner off to give it a point instead.
Intending to beat on it I just knocked the rust off with Schotch-Brite,then light sanded with 400 grit and cold blued it.
The handled is Oak held on with G Flex Epoxy plus front & rear flared 1/4" brass tubes & peened 1/4" brass center pins.
It is 5/16" thick at the ricaso tapering to 3/16" front & rear.
The edge is 9" long & convexed.
The handle is 7 1/2".
OAL is 17".
The handle is 1 1/4" high & 1" thick & I incorporated firework into the finger grooves.
I also rounded & polished the juncture of the blade & handle for finger comfort when choking up on it.
The blade is 4 5/8" at it's highest point.
$60.00--shipping & fees on me.
