Going back to my roots here. Ground (not tumbled) Delta 3V at HRC 62, Arizona Desert Ironwood, custom made "Azula Gun Holsters" leather sheath. Azula Gun Holsters" warranties their work for life.
I'm using titanium screws because they have a bigger head which will work better with the wood over time. I turned the heads on the lathe with polycrystalline diamond tooling for teh pretty...
It's otherwise a standard 3" EDC2, however I think this is the only one out there (yet) that is fully ground. We'll do about 25 of these CPK "Classics" in total.
We're finishing this now. Pictures to come...
soooo chatoyant
Most beautiful work of art ever (with sheath) $395
Shipping $12
If you don't hear angels sing and then weep with joy upon receipt you can return it for a full refund.
We're going to make about 25 of these. They're all a little different. Some are prettier than others. Rather than grade them I'm considering just documenting them with pictures and letting you folks determine what they're worth with some "1 penny, no reserve" auctions. However BF does not allow auctions so we'd probably do this over on the bay? I'm open to discussion here.
Thanks for looking. We enjoyed making this. Except machining the wood. We hated that sooo much... But otherwise this was a work of love. Mostly.
