Presentation Patriot

[David Dempsey]

Hey All,
I decided to do a Patriot with an upscale look. The standard model Patriot would have a bead blast or coated finish and micarta handle slabs. This one is made from 3/16" thick 154CM (Rc60) and has a nice hand rub finish on the flats and satin finished bevels. Topped her off with a nice set of stabilized burl slabs and stainless tubing in lieu of screws.

I'm just before finishing the leather sheath and off it will go to Julie at Arizona Custom Knives. She is the new owner / operator of AZCK, which I had the pleasuring of meeting at the show in NYC this past Nov.

Enjoy and thanks for taking a look.

Appreciate the comments Michael. Means alot coming from another maker

You too Wolfmann, thank you. I'd love to get ahold of some rag micarta. The stuff I've seen just looks awesome.

Have a good one,
