And third and final from the last batch of HT. This one had been sitting on my bench for a while, got pushed back a few times due to other projects, then really got put on hold when I had some major set backs with the first through tang I tried. I think this one came out well. Yes it has some small flaws in it, but my crappy point and shoot camera, and my poor photography skills don't really pick them up.
Overall Length: 12 3/16
Blade Length: 6 7/16”
Cutting Edge: 5 3/4”
Handle Length: 5 1/4 ”
Grind: Full Flat with swedge
Blade Steel: 13/64" 5160
Handle Material: Claro Walnut with 5 coats of Tung oil and a Beeswax top coat. Brass fittings
Hopefully this will be the last of my totally made with hand tools knives and I will have my grinder up and running before the next batch.
