G’day all! Here’s a compact version of my chopper series ready to go. Perfectly sized for those who need to get the job done but don't want to carry a beast around all day.
Steel is .2” x 1 3/4” in 5160 with professional HT at 60/61. Hand sanded to 600 grit for clean satin finish. Balances at the very front of the scales.
Edge before sharpening was below .015” or so and the blade glides through phone book paper, leather, rope etc.
Dimensions: 9 5/8” OAL, Tip to scales 5 1/8”
Chechem scales with 5/32” stainless pins and ¼” lanyard. The handle feels great in my average sized hand. Finished with multiple coats of Danish oil and carnauba wax. Sheath is lined with a fine felt like material.
Very affordable at only $145 to your door for this one, and of course your satisfaction is my only priority. I can accept 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. I can email the full resolution photos as well.

P.S. I’ve also got 1 more close cousin to this one with a convex tip, and another larger chopper with a concave tip that could be finished to your specs if it’s within my abilities.
