This is one of my Shortfinger family of knives, done with a dropped edge.

These are very small knives with fairly fat handles for comfort- Overall this one is 5 1/4 inches with a blade length of 2 3/8 inches. Deep belly, the cutting edge is slightly over 2 3/4 inches in length following the curve.

Steel is 1/8 inch 1080, full quench and temper with a high convex scandi- scandivex grind finished on a strop. Easy to maintain on a strop, as well. well sanded forge finish on this blade- what I call a bright forge finish.

Handle scales are figured black walnut with 1/4 inch brass pins, well rounded, right up near 3/4 inch thick.

Sheath is a "micro" explorer model. Snap retention and adjustable belt hanger, but the mounting strap is canted at an angle for a more comfortable horizontal carry.

Asking price is $140 SOLD

thanks!

The sheath design originally came from a customer's custom order for a HC necker. It's worked out wonderfully. It's a solid sheath!

Forgot to note, I'm trying to remember to list who did which sheath. This is a Koyote Girl made rig.
