Red, White and Blue, and M390

LX_Emergency · May 13, 2016

Here's a fun Utility knife.

M390 blade (4.5") from 5.5mm stock with a tapered tang. Rockwell hardness 61 (tested)
Stabilized Dyed blue redwood bolsters with a dovetail.
Red liners (not the fiber kind that soaks up moisture)
White micarta scales.
All fastened with stainless pins and epoxy.

The sheath has been Tooled (not stamped) to match the handle somewhat and is a righthand carry.

Due to a number of cosmetic flaws in this knife I'm offering this one cheap.
It'll hold up just fine in use and my usual garantee that if it ever breaks (first owner or subsequent owners, doesn't matter) or gets damaged I'll fix it for you is still valid.

This one will come to your home for $220 shipped worldwide with tracking.

Boy this is sexy! Is it thin ground?

Yes. It's fairly thin behind the edge.
I'm currently not near this knife (spending some time with relatives abroad) but I'll be able to check what the behind the edge thickness is when I get back Monday evening.

I like the contrast of the handle and bolsters, Nicely done.

I'm sorry. I completely forgot to check the behind the edge thickness yesterday. I'll do so today when I get home from my regular job. Which should be somewhere in the afternoon your local time.

Thanks, really like your choice of materials, your processing of them is not to shabby either!

Just tried to measure (man, that's not easy).
It's somewhere in between 0.012 and 0.010 best as I can tell with my digital measuring device.

And once again, thank you.

Let's try $200 shipped.
