Here is a Panther Knife I will deliver this week to a good customer and friend. To be honest when I started this knife over a year ago I had trouble getting it to all come together how I wanted it. :rolleyes: Well I made some good progress over that time and am pretty happy with how it came out. Now I can’t wait to grind the next one, I have two started already. The inspiration for this comes from Bob Lum's Sabre Tip fighter thought the blade shape and handles are both slightly different.

Blade: CPM S30V flat ground satin finish with Paul Bos Heat Treat to 59.5+/- Rockwell; 5/32" thick; 7" blade edge with a hollow ground martle swedge, 12-3/16” Overall.

Handles: G10 with palm swell and yellow liner, brass/stainless mosaic pins, stainless thong tube and guard pins.

For anyone interested I finished the first round of updating on my web page this week. It has been sorely out of date for some time.

Thanks for looking,:)
Eric

Thanks all I appreciate the comments this one was a tough starting out but after putting in the time it is good to hear that others can see it.
