Latest Design "Galileo"

[Pittknife]

Hi Guys,

Finally got my 2nd "Galileo" knife done, this is my 7th overall knife I've made. I make everything in house from raw materials, cut out the blanks, profile, heat treat and do all the finishes.

Blade: Chad Nichols San Mai 3.9" hollow grind.

Frame: Bolster lock .200" thick 6al-4v titanium with a lizard skin finish on the bolster area, the scale area has been machined down to .060" to reduce weight and balance. Edges are 600 grit satin, chamfers are hand rubbed to 600 grit satin.

Scales: Westinghouse micarta with chamfered edges.

Pivot: Custom machined with a shuriken pyramid pattern, SS.

Backspacer: Custom milled pattern, 6al-4v titanium

Clip:Timascus with gold, purple and blue heat ano

Looking good! Some tritium or moonglow inlaid into the backspacer would be an awesome addition:thumbup:

That is very good looking knife, looks like excellent fit and finish!
I'm no longer fan of tanto points, but I like this one it looks like good slicer, reminds me of katana point!
I like the fact it's almost 4" blade, I hate the fact that most knives have tiny blades!
It looks like it has near perfect 50/50 blade/handle ration, very slim knife!
