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 rounded.
I find it very comfortable for in hand paring work in the kitchen as well. This cutting geometry really wants to slice stuff.
Dimensions:
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.
The handle is Brazilian Cherry (Jatoba) I got from John Doyle a couple years ago. The wood is very durable and moisture resistant. I have finished it with several coats of tung oil.
I am asking 120$ for this or 150$ including a sheath.
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 (buyer please absorb fees) and If you elect to have a sheath made please specify left or right hand carry and allow a few extra days to ship.
