Medium Gaucho in O1 and Ironwood Repost/Redux

[John Cahoon]

Hey there everybody! Many moons ago someone suggested I make a smaller version of my gaucho style. So I did! I hope you like it.

O1 Steel- Dimensions - 5/32” x a tick over10”OAL and 6”from tip to bolster and the height is 1 7/16”.Filework on the spine. Hand sanded to 1200 grit for a clean satin finish. Paul Bos Heat Treat to 60/61.

Balances on the bolster and the edge was .015” before sharpening. The spine is well rounded for a comfortable thumb.

The handle features a stainless steel bolster with turquoise and yellow G10 spacers and an ironwood handle. It’s finished to 1200 grit, oiled and waxed.

The premium sheath features my feather motif and is a snug fit with great retention yet easy to deploy. So even if you’re not gonna go Gaucho’ing anytime soon this would still make a terrific BBQ blade with a very versatile profile for kitchen and camp.

Price is $215 to your US door, and of course your satisfaction is my only priority. I can accept paypal, check or MO, and the price includes fees and free shipping in the US.

Thanks so much for looking! Please feel free to comment, ask anything here or via PM.

This pointy rascal looks ready for business besides all the beautiful handle work, file work, and a very cool sheath design. I love leather button snap retention too.! You are for sure posting gorgeous work that looks better every time I look again.

This is one of the most beautiful designs in your line-up, and a bargain at this price. I probably shouldn't say this, but your knives are higly under priced.
