This is the first knife I made with dovetailed bolsters and I like them! I think they turned out great.
This is a rather large knife for people with big hands or those who wear gloves. It feels great in my hands and I ground the blade to be a slicer, not a batoner! There is an ever so slight convex on the lower 3rd. I put a fine V edge on it with a secondary bevel. This thing is screaming sharp!
I'm knocking some off the asking price because there is a little spot below my makers mark. I got careless with the etcher and there's a small spot barely noticeable on the blade. I ground it as much as I dared. So my carelessness gets you a discount!
I'll be giving the new Owner their choice of the leather sheath they'd like. Either my Bushcraft type squared ended sheath or my hand tooled pouch type hunting sheath (I've included pictures for EXAMPLES only below). You can also choose right or left hand!
Here's the specs on the Knife.
Steel: 1/8" Aldo's 1095. Convexed ever so slightly near the edge for better performance.
Handles: Osage Orange (Bodark to some, Bois d'Ark to others) with thick black G10 liner
Hardware: five 1/8" black Micarta Pins (3 in the Osage Orange and two in the bolsters), Bolsters are black Micarta
Blade Height: 1 1/8" at the ricasso
Blade Length: 4 3/4" from tip to scales with a 4 1/4" cutting edge
OAL: 9 1/2"
Includes handcrafted - hand tooled Premium sheath made from Hermann Oak leather that was made by myself.
Also includes my Common Sense Lifetime Warranty and Lifetime Free Sharpening. You only pay for shipping to me and back to yourself.
$150. This includes all PayPal fees (if paying by PayPal) and FREE USPS Priority Shipping to the U.S.! Payment via PayPal at donaldlawson@gmail.com or USPS Money Order.
