Custom Bushcraft - now available as standard pattern

[Daniel Koster]

I've ordered more steel and added options to the Order Tracker for the bushcraft knife.

I'll make it in just about any steel you want, any handle material.

I know there were a few "holding out" for fancier materials (ironwood...damascus...etc.)

:thumbup:


Let me know if you have any questions about it...


I think the bushcraft can still be had for as low as $100...

O1
canvas micarta
no thumbramp


...and goes up from there.


The model I'm building for myself is:

S30V
fibermascus
black liners
thumbramp
striker tip

$175 + $35 for sheath

Pics to come later!!!

Thanks for looking!

Striker tip?

Is that some thumbramp type notches out near the point?

 

[Daniel Koster]

I probably shouldn't/won't use "striker tip"...I think someone else has dibs on that name......plus, it alludes to the wrong idea on this one.



Think of it more as a super-short false edge. Look great and pierces beatifully. It's only an option, though...standard order will be without it. :thumbup:

I'll post a pic on Monday.

I'm guessing the "Striker tip" is like what Busse calls a "penetrator tip"... We'll see Monday! :thumbup:

 

[Daniel Koster]

Yes - but a little deeper.

Is it similar to what you did on this Nessmuk(I do want this on the Nessie I have on order FYI)? I think it helps tremendously in piercing ability.

 

[Daniel Koster]

Yes...but deeper/taller. Make sense?

And a lil' bump for those folks interested in the post-mid-tech bushcraft knives. :thumbup:
