Kepzilla!

[JK Knives]

The biggest Kephart I`ve ever made! 14" overall, with a 9" long blade, 1 1/2" tall, and 3/16" thick. This one has tan micarta handles, red liners, and brass pins. I made this for a customer, (not a BF member), who had bought a Kephart HD last year.

It`s pretty blade heavy, he wanted it for a chopper.

 

[JackHammer]

I like it.

Hi John -

That is an interesting variation - Kepzilla indeed - I was thinking Kep-chete, or Kephart Jungle Edition.

Beautifully rendered, Mr. K.

best regards-

Looks like something I would use. Very nice.

 

[Mack]

That looks like it would do the job. Dang near any job at that.
There is just something cool about a big knife.

 

[fishiker]

Nice! I would love to see a JK Nessmuk that size.

 

[Riverwarrior]

That is a very cool Kephart variation. I bet that will be a great chopper!

That thing needs a scabbard, not a sheath!!

 

[JK Knives]

Had a question recently about how long can I make a knife, so I brought this back to the top.

Huba Huba!
What steel is it?

 

[1066vik]

O1 -- pretty much the only steel John works with - which makes sense, why mess with a good recipe?

 

[JK Knives]

O1 is correct!
