Hey guys! To continue my road down the rabbit hole of battle blades. I decided to design a full tang, modern version of the infamous M3 trench knife.
For these I shortened the blade to 5" for an oal of 9 3/4". The steel is .227" CPM 3V with my custom HT.
In my opinion, if heat treated correctly, it is one of the best knife steels available today. I have developed my high performance 3V Heat treat, including Liquid Nitrogen cryo, to improve hardness, toughness and corrosion resistance.
The handle is Tero Tuf with flared stainless tubes.
Both edges are razor sharp.
The sheath is kydex for a wide variety of mounting options.
I have two of these available now.
Thanks for looking, here are the specs.
OAL - 9 3/4"
Blade - 5"
Steel - .227" CPM 3v with proper HT done by myself including LN cryo. My HT benefits not only fine edge stability but also increases corrosion resistance to near stainless levels.
Sheath - Kydex ready to mount Tek lok, or molle lok among many other mouting options. Very secure.
Price - $550 + $15 Priority shipping
Paypal or postal money order preferred
