This is a compact hiking knife in stainless AEBL steel. The edge is strong enough to do light bush crafting tasks. The raised clip is con vexed and does not come to an edge.
I have had great experience with AEBL as an outdoors type of knife. I love how easy it is to bring back a keen edge.
Dimensions:
0.13" stock thickness
7.5" OAL
4.25" handle length
3.13" edge length

This one has a gentle distal taper with about .020 behind the tip.
Behind the edge is about .012
The bevels are ground on a 36" radius platen.
The blade is hardened by Peters to rc 60-61 with the cryogenic temper.

I always use an extremely durable handle material for this model. This handle is Bocote I got from Ben Greenberg. The wood is very durable and hard. I have finished it with several coats of tung oil. The Pins are G-10.
This one has to go!
I am asking SOLD Shipped CONUS sheath available at additional cost on request.
The black marks on the blade are actually water droplets.
If you dont fall completely in love with the knife within a week of receiving it, you may send it back for a full refund. (must be in original condition, i.e. not damaged) Payment can be sent by postal money order or paypal: timostheos@hotmail.com
