There are two of these available; that's not a mistake. Might be good for a father/son combo...hint, hint.

blade grind: scandi, brute de forge
blade: 5″
overall length: 10″
steel: 1/8″ 80CrV2 @ 61 Hc
handle: blasted black canvas micarta
handle thickness: 3.5-4/5
hardware: copper pins and tube
sheath: includes custom sized right handed JRE sheath with dangler and firesteel loop. Kydex upgrade available.
I began making PL knives in 2016. I've done leather work for over 20. I added kydex to my repertoire in the last few years. The heat treat on all of my carbon steel knives is done by me in a thermostatically controlled Evenheat knifemaking kiln. Each 80CrV2 blade goes through a multi-stage normalization before being heated to austenitic temperature and quenched in Parks quench oil. Then it goes through a 2 stage tempering process. 80CrV2 Hardness is approx. 61 hc and my heat treat process produces a blade with extreme toughness and fine edge sharpenability. Scales are glued with West Systems G-flex epoxy. My aim is to produce heirloom quality tools with excellent craftsmanship that will provide a lifetime of enjoyment and service.
