The EDC knives i make are lightweight and medium profile, designed to be servicable using knives (I use one from steak to shopping veggies to cutting cord and sharpening pencils) and still be serviceable as backup self-defense tools. (These days they may be all you got, too). I work with seirra to house them in durable and workmanlike, but clean and 'casual dressy' sheaths.
This one is handled in jatoba, with a tung oil finish and 1/4 inch brass tubing for handle pins- if you want a lanyard on this you can try forward, mid, or rear mounting.
Blade is 4 7/8 inches (TX legal) and is .095 15N20 steel, differentially tempered, with a convex ground edge that's eeasy to maintain. The blade is left forge finished, first scrubbed with a copper pad and then buffed out with a cotton wheel. Worked tange edges are blued to match the look.
Overall length is 9.5 inches, 10.25 in the sheath.
Sheath is a mid high pouch, 8oz, waterformed and double needle hand stitched, doubel seamed. Belt loop is sewn to the horizontal strap and will handle most belt widths (might be a bit tight on a 3 inch belt, but will easily go on 2.5 inch belts)
Sold!
thanks!
