The Simplicity series are leukus I make when I get time and creativity- the goal of the series is self explanatory. I'm looking for a smooth finish and overall appearance. In a way, this is a type of art knife for me, and I tend to focus on the overall aesthetic in a different way from a working, wilderness, or combat knife.
V is the longest I've done in the series with an overall length of 11 inches and a blade length of 6 1/4 inches.
Steel is 1084, finished thickness is 1/8 inch. Full quench and temper with a differential temper on the spine. Flats are finished to 800 grit over the forge finish, leaving a lightly pebbled pattern.
Edge is convex, easy to maintain with a strop.
Handle is bocote, with stainless tubing pins. Balance is right at the edge of the front of the handle
Sheath is a black expedition model, with adjustable and removable belt hanger strap. Fully hand harness stitched, and double seamed.
