Smilodon:
Scandi Grind in MRAP Kevlar Ballistic panel over Black G10. Black Micarta pins and tube.
Includes JRE Sheath
4 1/8" blade | 8 3/4" overall | 1/8 80CrV2 blade stock | 3/5 handle thickness
Kydex and hand made leather sheath options are also available.
This one is kind of cool to me. Many moons ago, I worked on a contract doing IT for the organization that did wheeled vehicle parts distribution and also distributed MRAP kits to the installations to install on the vehicles.
MRAP Program Info
I began making PL knives in 2016. I've done leather work for over 20. I added kydex to my repertoire in the last 3 years. The heat treat on all of my carbon steel knives is done by me in a thermostatically controlled Evenheat knifemaking kiln. Each blade goes through a 3 stage normalization process, followed by heating to austenitic temperature and quench in Parks 50 oil. Then it goes through a 2 stage tempering process. Hardness is 61-62 hrc. Scales are glued with West Systems G-flex epoxy. My aim is to produce heirloom quality tools with excellent craftsmanship that will provide a lifetime of enjoyment and service.
