Here's a last minute hunter I finished to take to Blade. Now available for sale. It's a little bit different than my normal hunters but I like it. This is quite stout. It's really a heavy duty knife. It's balanced nicely though with a full distal taper and a drastically tapered tang. It has a stout cutting edge and it's razor sharp.
I think the scales are really unique. They're naturally colored box elder burl. No dye whatsoever on them. It's a very vivid red/orange color. The blade and tang have a mustard finish.
Specs:
Hand forged from 1075 steel with mustard finish
8" overall, 3 3/4" blade, .235" at the front of the scales with full distal taper
Rounded spine
Rounded filed thumb grip
Tapered tang, tapered down to .040" thick
Stabilized, naturally colored box elder burl scales
Price is $500 shipped to the US. International buyers will pay actual shipping charges. I prefer paypal but will accept check or money order too. Funds must clear prior to shipping.
This will come with a Claude Scott custom leather sheath made for this knife and a padded zipper case.
