My name is Ryan, I’m a rather new maker! I have a rather simple philosophy with knives, I keep the design simple! I’m not really into fancy knives. I build working class blades!! Most blades are tested extremely hard so you don’t have to! I convex grind all my blades and finish with a 20 degree micro bevel. Blade is 3 inches long, .150 thick. Black canvas micarta, held with corby bolts and epoxied to the tang, with a kydex sheath. Sheath is sized for a small tek lok. This is an introductory knife! It’s light and durable. It’s in 3v heat treated by me in my evenheat kiln. 58-59 rc. Low temper cryo method. At this hardness, it’s really easy to field sharpen, and it’s extremely tough! I’m asking 125$ shipped through PayPal. Most of my blades are finished with a scotchbright belt, on this one the flats are not polished, just a rough finish! Tooling marks are visible. Pricing seems fair, considering the raw steel price! PRICE DROP 125$ shipped

Why wouldn’t you add a bunch of pictures and describe its dimensions? It might helps to sell it.

I tried doing that, it kept erroring out! Thanks. I posted 3 pics though on that link
 
About 3 1/2 inches. Sorry, next time I’ll make sure to have all the specs. I’m really liking this design personally! I think I’m gonna build one for me just like it.
 
Great looking design you have here, and tough too in 3V! Will you be posting more of your work here? Other designs?
 
Yes sir! I’m trying to finish up a few more skinners in aeb-l. And I have a few bars of 4v in Right now. But I work full time! Long hours.
