This was a slick project that Will from Up-Armored Knives and I just finished up. We've been talking about getting together to shoot the jing-a-ling for ages, and despite only living 20 minutes from one another, it just sort of never happened. I was just about at the point of popping like a pimple from spending the entire frigging summer renovating the house when I he gave me a call, and I jumped at the chance to once again smell the acrid scent of industrial abrasives instead of drywall dust.
The 8” blade is made of .200” AEBL, with synthetic “mother-of-pearl” scales under the handle wrap by Will's wife (she's selling scales on Instagram under @up_armored_scales. For me, the scales totally make the knife. Absolutely amazed at the luster they have!!!!
The lined kydex sheath features kanji script for ‘strength’.
Overall length is 13-1/2 inches.
