S125V Hunter/Utility -- Super Thin Combination Grind

[Big Chris]

Tried something a bit new (to me at least) on this knife.
It has a high flat primary grind with a hollow secondary grind.
I did this unique grind purely in an effort to increase cutting performance.
You can read my thoughts on S125V and the reasoning behind this grind in my thread linked below

It's definitely not the easiest to work with.

That's a stunning knife and steel!

Awesome how you're pushing the performance envelope with steel and grind. I like the new maker's mark too.

Big Chris, that orange spacer element intrigues the $#!t out of me.

Thanks Guys. What little I have used my S125V knife it is very impressive performance wise.
As for the mark, Thanks. The steel is brittle and hard (mid forties) in the annealed state so I did not want to stamp them.
I also wanted to mark the steel type on the blades so I upgraded to an etching set up.
It's quite nice.

Big Chris, that orange spacer element intrigues the $#!t out of me.

The blades I had cut are half tangs, so the spacer is to basically extend the tang to complete the handle.
