Robert Hankins Rebar Integral

[JR42]

This knife was made by Robert Hankins out of industrial rebar via stock removal- it's essentially a very funky and cool looking carbon steel blade with two slabs of green G10 inlet into the rebar. The rebar crosshatching is still visible along the spine and at the butt, giving this knife a very unique appearance. It's shaving sharp, with just a hint o' the recurve, and includes a kydex sheath by the maker.

I don't want to sell this (it was the start of my "collection"), but as always I'm too broke to own knives I don't use. I'd like to get $150.00=>135.00 SOLD! for this one-off, including shipping and insurance in the US. I can accept Paypal +3% or a USPS money order, and can be reached at j_roth42atyahoo.com.

I apologize for the crappy pics- I just got the camera and am still figuring out what the hell I'm doing.

Thanks for looking,
Jeremy

Thats pretty darn cool , it looks heavy...what are the measurements?

 

[JR42]

It's about 11" OAL; the blade is around 5 3/4" from tip to handle with 4 1/4" of edge. The handle is 4 1/2". The blade thickness tapers from around 7/8" at the handle to about 1/4" an inch from the tip (the taper continues to the tip).

It is indeed heavy- my 16 oz postal scale bottomed out quickly when I put this knife on it. I'd guess it to be around 20 oz, but can't say for sure.
