$300 Price includes CONUS shipping
Vixen:
Saber grind with Jimping. Vintage milk chocolate paper micarta bolster and 100yr Osage handle. Des Tan G10 liner and divider over black micarta. 1980's vintage micarta pins and stainless tube.
Includes JRE sheath (265 w/o sheath)
4 1/4" blade | 8 3/4" overall | 1/8" 80CrV2 | 4/5 handle thickness
Kydex and hand made leather sheath options are also 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 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.
