My custom with Becker furniture....(Pic heavy)

[Murphnuge]

Some of you have seen my Todd Hunt custom with the Becker Grips. Well, now you get to see a bit more of it. These are shots I took at work on my gauge bench with my Droid so please forgive the piss-poor quality. She ain't a centerfold anyway, but she's my sexy thing just the same. Modeled mostly after the Tom Brown Tracker T1, I have a thing for Grivory so Todd made adjustments for that.

With my BK 10 for scale.

She's 1/4 inch thick 01 tool steel and although she's a little odd looking, she functions flawlessly.

That thing looks like something BraveHeart would have used! Awesome!

I like it, it's a beast of a knife. When was it made?

 

[Moosez45]

Wow, what a monster. I love it, and the look is good, with Uncle E's handles on it.

Cool stuff, mayne.

I have never really been a fan of the Tom Brown Tracker style of knife, but I will say I like yours better than most. Handles look darn good on it.

That's the knife from the movie The Hunted right. Liked that movie

 

[Murphnuge]

Thanks for the the kind words! I've had plenty of fun with her. Regarding the thickness(of the knife ), I'll mic. it tonight to be sure, but I'm almost certain it's 1/4". It was completed in May of '09.

Me too! Yeah, I loved it, though knife wise I understand it was pretty far out there. The Hunted was what inspired me to research this style of knife. Don't have any real bush time with a tracker, but I've handled one and realized I wanted mine more robust.

Thanks man! Like I said that was my preference with the handles, it is a heavy tool and Uncle E's handles help tame that heft.

Best looking "tracker" knife I've seen. What do you use the "saw" teeth for?

Not to be a smartass, but believe it or not, to saw. Really they are functional, Todd proved it with a two by four in his shop the day of pick up. I'll admit they don't get much use from me though. I've only used the saw portion once in the last two years. Mainly it just makes it look a little more mean. It is by no means a band saw, no elegant cutting here. It really is rough cutting, but not hard to manage at all. Thanks for the compliment!

 

[Chris Pierce]

Surprising. They don't look much like saw teeth. They do look mean though

 

[Murphnuge]

It's kind of an odd design, I'll take a shot from the tip of the knife to show you here in a bit. It might convey it if I can get my sub par skills to cooperate.

 

[Murphnuge]

Not stellar photography, but you get the idea.

Haha! Thanks for the great offer, but I will need to wait 6 more years.
