my first bushcrafter

[Charlie Mike]

This was a fun build. Sharpened length is 3 7/8" (9 1/4" overall) from .190" O1. Handles are a fiberglass similar to G10 held with epoxy and 3/16" pins. Hand stitched leather sheath (welt construction) is ambidextrous and will hold the knife in either orientation. RC59 and shaving sharp.

Nice, Reminds me of a Canadian Camp knife.

Like some of my stuff - its not gonna win any beauty contests but it will do or out do what almost any pretty more elaborate knife can do. How is it beveled?

 

[Charlie Mike]

Its a full convex, ground on slack belt.

 

[BMK]

That's what I thought. Full convex to zero is a great bevel. Keep up the good work.

This is what I'm using... Kalamazoo Industries 1x42

Nice work Charlie-the handle material looks like the same phenolic we use in some of our large electrical panels.

I particularly like the "FTW" engraving... i agree! looks like a comfortable design, and I've always been a fan of the russell belt knife type blade... very useful.
