...and let that be a warning 
Steel: A2
Handle Materials: West G-Flex, vulcanized fiber spacer, natural walnut, brass, Tru Oil.
Heat Treatment: Paul Bos, 60 R.C.
Overall Length: 8 1/2"
Cutting Edge: 3 1/2"
Tip - To - Scale: 3 7/8"
Width at Ricasso: 1 1/8"
Thickness at Ricasso: 7/64"
Combined weight, knife and sheath: 6.1 oz.
The edge is a convex.
Issues: 1) Irregular patina, scrapes and scuffs on the blade. 2) Tang and scales are not perfectly flush, due to slight warpage of tang.
Before glueing, I cut divots in the steel. For clamping, I use spring clamps. I do not use screw-down clamps.
These dark lines are patina that formed around the edges of the masking tape. They do not affect the performance of the knife:
$40 includes USPS Priority shipping anywhere in USA. Canada add $3.00. No other destinations, please.
