Just finished this one! Same pattern as my turkey knives, but with a micarta handle since they will be used around water. And the creeks are starting to thaw out nicely!


OAL- 7 1/4"
blade- 3 1/4" long, .125" thick, 11/16" wide at the guard
steel- Aldo's high carbon 0-1, with in-house differential heat treatment
grind- a full convex grind, with distal taper
finish-etched 600 grit finish
handle-black linen micarta with red spacer
guard- 1/4" brass and 1/8" brass pins
sheath- 10oz leather, hand stitched, hand tooled, hot-waxed, with cam, for "snap fit", 3 copper rivets for belt loop
blade fully tested for edge retention and tip strenth before finishing


$110 plus $10 shipping/insurance to CONUS. I can accept paypal Joe357m@bresnan.net or money order.

First one to post "I'll take it" gets it!!!

Feedback appreciated, and thanks for looking!
 
Hey Joe, Just saying, I got your knife an its in my side bibs pocket , Its a sharp knife, I don't like dull knives or knives that wont sharpen an stay sharp as they should, so I'm giving yours the work out. Also? Start thinking about my next 52100 Skinner That I want you to make for me. This O 1 should be a good deal for some one. OK Man , Adios for now.
 
Thanks guys!

Joebonny, I'm hoping to get another batch of 52100's forged next week, and will include one for you!
 
I've been edc'ing one of these fine knives since I rec. it about 3 weeks ago and it is just a very well made cutting tool. Looks good, performs good and sits well on my side and in the hand. Don't get no better than that. keepem sharp
