Price includes PayPal and CONUS Shipping.
Mors Kochanski inspired primitive.
$225 - Smilodon 400:
Scandi grind. Grip finish black and tan micarta, brass flared pins, exposed pommel.
4" blade | 8 3/4" overall | 1/8" 80CrV2 | 4/5 handle thickness
Includes JRE sheath ($190 w/o Sheath)
Other kydex and leather sheath options are available.
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 8670 blade is heated to austenitic temperature and quenched in Parks 50 oil. Then it goes through a 2 stage tempering process. Hardness is 60-61 hrc and my heat treat process produces a blade with extreme toughness and fine edge sharpenablility. 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.
