7.22 knife and keybar.jpg
Middle of the night, couldn't sleep. So I fitted out an old production titanium "Key-Bar" organizer to keep my keys from chewing up my knives. Speaking of which, that's a Benchmade 940 with an M-4 blade that's been generously doused with "TSI-321" CLP to withstand our heat wave humidity.
 
I wanted to like this little Petrified Fish Scout more than I do. It's a cool design and I love that they used 14C28N here instead of their usual D2. It's just held back by a few finishing issues.

The milled lines on the scales were uncomfortably crisp. Something about how they meet the scale texture makes them catch against skin. I did a first pass with folded sandpaper but I need to do more. The spine edges are super crisp too. I suppose that would be good for striking a fire steel, but it feels totally misplaced on a dainty little front-flipper like this. Maybe I'll work on it this weekend after I get around to working on my Bestech Bandit.

Good looking knife, though.
 
Nope!! I had Phillip draw up a design, adjusted it some n added the compound grind.......
Thanx for the kudos!!!! I love it and his work!!!! He is a maker here...
Phillip Patton!!! Have a look...
I love it. Just made to be a knife. I like that it's not too busy. Looks like it has good geometry as well. Good grab, and I'll definitely be looking more into him.
