From original G L Drew sales thread:
"Forged from 3/16 inch 52100
Heat treated to Rc 59 with three normalizing and two tempering cycles with a fine grain throughout the blade (in my strong opinion heat treating is the most critical part of producing a quality knife)
Flat grind with a mat finish and forged texture on the flats
Stabilized cherry burl handle with a red spacer
Overall length: 8 1/2 inches
Blade: 4 1/2 inches
Leather scabbard with a belt loop"
I have reprofiled, zeroed and polished the edge. It had a thicker micro-bevel that I thinned out and made much better for slicing and biting into wood. Really a nice looking, hardworking package. Blade is sporting leather and stone scratches, but is in amazing shape. Ready to be abused.
$80 paypal shipped priority USPS to lower 48.
