Forged 5160 Chopper inspired by 2008's Rambo movie

[flatgrinder]

Always wanted to make one of these after watching the movie a few years ago, well here's my beefed up version:

Specifications:

Steel: Forged 5160 (heat treated to HRC 59), differentially heat treated (hard edge, softer spine -there was a visible hamon before I blued it), flat ground with a convex edge, hammer marks left on blade, cold blued finish.

Blade Length: 13-1/4" (to top of handle wrap)

Blade Width: 2-5/8" (at widest point)

Overall Length: 18-3/4"

Stock Thickness: A tad over 5/16"

Handle: Paracord and grip tape

Sheath: Leather -vertical carry

Price: SPF (includes shipping in conus).

First "I'll take it" is the owner. I accept paypal and money orders.

I don't plan on making any more of these, this was just a one off.

Thanks for looking. :thumbup:

Just wanted to drop a line that I had received this BEAST!!! I don't really have the words, Marcus, but I couldn't be more pleased. I can't wait to give this one a serious chopping workout, and I hope to get another chance at some of your work in the future. THANKS AGAIN!!!!!
