Here's one I have available.
Size: Length Overall: 7.5" (19cm), Blade Length: 5.5" (13.97cm), Thickness: .3125" (.79cm)
Blade: O-1 High Carbon Alloy Tool Steel, Hardened and Tempered to Rockwell C59, flawlessly mirror polished, with full filework, professionally hot blued
Fittings/Bolsters: Low Carbon Steel, Hand-Engraved by Jay Fisher
Handle: Decorative Orthoclase/Feldspar Granite (TX)
Sheath: Cobra Skin Inlayed in 9-10 oz. Leather Shoulder
The "Grim Reaper" is a particularly serious push dagger, a stylized and finely finished version of the push/punch dagger I have sent to US Army soldiers overseas for combat operations and defense. The extra long blade was requested by combat servicemen for punching through many layers and still delivering decisive force. The steel is oil-hardening high carbon alloy tool steel, a very serviceable razor keen edge holding knife steel that takes a beautiful mirror polish and a rich, deep professional hot blue. The bluing is both cosmetic and tactical, inhibiting corrosion and maintaining stealth by reducing glare. This particular Reaper has a milled slot down the spine of the blade, .375" at its widest and 3.1875" long, for aesthetic appeal and to reduce spine weight. The knife has full filework. The maximum thickness at the ricasso is .3125," making this a meaty, strong knife. The hollow grinds are accomplished beautifully with a 3" contact wheel for tremendous thickness at the spine, terminating at a devastatingly thin edge. I have hand-engraved fine flourishes on the bolster faces, which feature dovetails embracing a finely polished dark granite gemstone handle. The sheath has two inlays of cobra skin into 9-10 oz. leather shoulder, lacquered and sealed and stitched together with polyester sinew. The knife is retained with a split snap-strap, highlighting the gem handle.
Price: $775.00
