This is a loveless style drop point hunter.
Steel- aeb-l 61RC
Blade- 3.5"
Overall- 8"
Natural linen micarta scales
Loveless bolts
What makes this a second is some waves in the grind, also the hollow grind is extremely thin at the edge (.007 behind the edge) . The advantage to this is that it gets super sharp, and is very easy to sharpen. The disadvantage is that it is not as strong and would not be ideal for cutting any bone, but for skinning and slicing this thing would be a beast. The heat treat was done by Peter's, and includes deep cryo- treatment. Another one of the things that makes it a second is the general finish around the guard is not as elegant as I would like, but this was a bit of an experimental project. It will make a great user for less than what you pay for a lot of production blades.
$55 shipped to lower 48
Add $35 for a custom wetform leather sheath.
