Inspired by Bob Loveless New York Special, I call this the "New York Sneak"

Blade is ATS 34 60c with liquid nitrogen cryogenic treatment , the result is an extreme improvement of high wear resistance and high toughness, along with improved corrosion resistance.

Blade length 3.5"
Thick .153"
Wide .900 at ricasso
OAL 7.25"
Full hollow grind on 10" wheel
Blade 400 grit then glass bead blasted, tumbled to give a nice satin non reflective finish

Scales are 1/8" black textured G10 .

Custom brass stand offs 6-32 threaded
6-32 black oxide bolts


Black Kydex sheath set up with clip for horizontal mount and inverted mount. Belt loop included for vertical carry option.
Blade is free floating in the sheath and does not touch inside.

Thanks guys

Thanks Guys,

It sold quickly :)
 
Very nice. The funny thing about those "New York" fixed balde knives is that while having a pocket clip on a folding knife that the cops can open with a hard flick will get you busted for a "gravity knife violation" in NYC, a knife like that with a sub 4 inch blade can be carried with impunity as long as it is TOTALLY CONCEALED. They got them some funny laws there in the Big Apple. :D
 
Thanks Guys

Much appreciated

I thought I would give meshing the styles together and seems some actually like it :)
