Colorful Kitchen Utility:
is approx. 8-3/4" OAL with a blade just over 4-1/8".
Blade:
2.5mm (.090") O-1 Profiled, Flat Ground (with distal taper) and Heat Treat by Stuart Mitchell (English Knife maker and great guy to make a deal with) I received the blanks in trade for some of my handmade composite materials.
Handles:
Handmade Fiberglas Composite in a ladder pattern.
The fiberglass material is a variant of Texalium (that is the brand name, we know it better as silver twill) The silver twill was colored on one side giving a unique and striking pattern when stacked and laminated. The colors are red, orange and gold over the silver. This was my first attempt at making scales with a ladder pattern.
It has Brass Liners and Brass Pins.
Being thin flat ground with distal taper and convex edges, this will make short work of most chopping tasks in the kitchen.
I have not made any sheath or holder, but I can make one up for a little extra $$ (similar to the one in my Tactical Kitchen Knife) with Kevlar inner and orange or yellow fiberglass covering. I do have other colors and materials on hand.
-Or-
I can make up a block like the one I made for A Nice Pair from yellow canvas or fiberglass or ??
Price: is $115 shipped priority in the US. Paypal preferred, fees are on me.
I will entertain shipping outside the US for additional shipping cost.
An "I'll take it" in this thread will hold it until we make contact via PM or email.
Thanks for looking.
