I'm going to preface this by saying that this knife has issues:foot: I flubbed the plunge lines, she's got a tiny bit of a cant to the right when you're looking at the spine, and there's some rough grind marks on the butt. I just couldn't seem to get anything right on this one. I was going to scrap 'er, but then I realized that for all my mistakes, she's got attitude
This knife begs to be taken out to cut something!
Convex ground 1075 that started at 3/16" thick, but is probably closer to 5/32" now
11 5/8" overall, 6" tip-to-plunge line, 7" tip-to-guard, blued all over for rust resistance, with (3) 1/8" holes and (5) 1/4" holes in the handle to put the balance right on the first wrap on the handle. I also sprayed (soaked through) the wrap with waterproofing to help discourage any moisture. She's really, really light for a knife this size, and I'll bet she'll see plenty of pack time, flaws and all:thumbup:
Looking for $100 even with a basic kydex sheath (your choice of black or tan, and Right or Left-handed) or $75 without a sheath. Paypal and U.S. shipping included, and I will take a USPS MO, also.
Thanks,
Walter
