Minislim

[Rick Marchand]

***SOLD***

Hey folks,
This knife is a relative of the larger Slimmoro and the larger still, Bushmoro. I call it the Minislim. Though, with a 6" cutting edge and 11" OA length, it's more of a nickname than a describtion. Thanks for looking.

Rick

Hi Rick, another great looking knife and sheath. Where is Wheatley near, London area? I'm in Haliburton, would love to drop in to your place sometime and talk knives.

Best regards

Wheatley is a fishing village between Windsor and Chatham, on the shore of lake Erie. Its a booming metropolis of 1200 and we even have a grocery store now... although it closes for the Winter season.:thumbup:

She does look sweet Rick.

Do you have your own stamp for the leather now - or are you hand carving that?

[Rick Marchand]

It was in the specs, Doug... he he

Thickness – 5/32" at spine, full flat with a micro convex edge.

The final convex is done by hand using water stones and various stropes... it is quite sharp as the good folks in W&SS will attest.

I use the same stamp for the leather as I do for the blades. MS Wally Hayes made them up for me.

I really dig your modern/primitive style. Great stuff.

 

[Pipeman]

I know what you mean, I live between two towns one with a pop of 90 and one with 250 but at least the store stays open in the winter ;-).

You do great work, love your stuff.
