Hey there everybody! Here’s another Gaucho in a Mountain West style up for your consideration. I just love the profile and I hope you do too! This is serial #22-42 so I had it laying around a while as I focused on other things, it finally made it to the bench!

52100- Dimensions - 1/8”” x 11 3/8” OAL and 7” from tip to bolster and the height is 1 1/2”. There’s even some fancy filework on the spine for a little latin flare! Hand sanded to 1200 grit for a clean satin finish. Paul Bos Heat Treat to 60/61.

The near sharp swedge flairs at the tip for extra strength. The balances is on the bolster and the edge was .015” before sharpening. The spine is well rounded for a comfortable thumb.

The handle features a stainless bolster with Mesquite, Leather and elk antler, accented with green fiber and black G10 spacers and a sculpted/ blued steel pommel. It’s finished to 1200 grit, oiled and waxed.

The premium sheath features the real Gaucho man and is a snug fit with great retention yet easy to deploy. So even if you’re not gonna go Gaucho’ing anytime soon this would still make a terrific BBQ blade with a very versatile profile.
