So far pretty much all my Nubilus knives have been flashy in some way. Ghost Jade G10, burl, mosaic.... I finally did one with a plain black linen micarta and stainless pin/tube hardware. I even used a flat finish on the micarta and scotchbrite finish on the bevels. This is pretty much how I'd do one for myself if I was going to carry it and use it day to day. I eased the edges of the spine and at the choil noticeably for extra comfort.
CPM154 .140" steel from Aldo, heat treat by Paul Bos Heat Treating.
7 7/8" OAL, 3 7/8" blade.
Black linen micarta
Stainless hardware
Double bevel, full height. Very slight distal taper for a heavier duty knife than my usual Nubilus.
Comes with a kydex sheath. I will make either a taco or single fold style with an IWB loop, Tek-Lok, regular belt loop... your choice. It could be done as a necker as well.
Price is $120 with sheath plus shipping. Domestic shipping w/insurance and delivery confirmation is $8. I prefer paypal but am open to other options.
The only changes from the first set of pics to the last is the maker's mark and shooting location.
The handle's darker than this shot looks, the flat finish catches the light in the fibers and looks light grey in direct sunlight.
