Knife heading to the US

My latest piece of work, a custom order of a fellow forumite.

He's going to use it in the field (judging from the pics of his EDC knifes he's really going to use it hard :)).

But he wanted it ground real thin with a 10 degree edge. So this is propably one of the sharpest knife's I ever made.
The clip is also sharpened.

For a more comfortable handling all tang edges were chamfered, hard to see on the pics.

This knife made me cursing big time on several occasions :D.

But it turned out quite good in the end.

Some Specs:

Steel: 4 mm 1.2842 (O-2), differentially hardened
Handle: G10 overlays attached with torxscrews and JB Weld
Lenght: 24 cm, 11 cm on the handle

Looking forward to your opinions.

You really did a nice job on this one :eek: Very clean, and I like the design quite a bit. Although I'd go with full scales instead of overlays personally, I think it came out beautifully :cool:
 
Nice job ,but is that 10 degrees the total angle or 10 on each side ? 20 total should be more than enough ! I wonder how comfortable that stepped back handle in heavy use.A field report from the customer would be nice.
 
Awsome! I love it!
Where did you get those torx screws? I found a few here in Texas, but they are a little small. Did you get those locally or online? Thanks.
Man, I'm going to have to make me one like that. Very cool :cool:
 
Another great looking, extremely clean knife Marcus. It looks like all your cursing paid off
 
Looking good, and very clean. My only dislike would be the steped handle, but I guess that is the customer's preferance? In any event you pulled it off well.
 
So really, where did you get those Torx screws? :confused:
I've looked all over. I'm pretty sure you have a threaded standoff in the middle-is that correct? Did you thread the standoff yourself, or buy it somewhere?
I know I said it, but it bears repeating:
Cool knife! :)
Thanks

Very nicely done, Marcus. Great lines. Looks like it performed really well in the old tampon cutting test.
