This is an upgrade on one of my first models.
It is made of 3/16" thick 5160 steel, diferentially heat treated and distall tapered on blade and handle. It is 8 3/4" long with a 4 3/4" satin finished, mildly etched, aged looking blade where the temper line really stands up. This blade has my new Full Flat Chisel (FFC) grind style - basically a full flat made on one side only, taht halps a lot in weight reduction and improving the balance.
The handle is reddish swamp wood (I don´t know the real name of this wood, but it looks good and is very light and strong), resin soaked and cord wrapped.
This is the lightest (under 3 oz.) and better balanced blade of this category I have ever made - very, very sharp and very, very fast in the hand!
US$ 135,00 without sheath or US$ 160,00 with a kydex sheath - your choice. Priority shipping costs is US$ 15,00.
I can accept Paypal (prefered), Western Union, bank transfer or other payment methods.
