mmm...- Why yes they are hollow ground, thanks for taking a look. I hollow-grind most all my work unless I get a request otherwise. I also wanted to note the hardness of the tool steel. I almost always work with 440-C that I heat-treat myself very satisfactory; well, I heat-treated this 01 and took one blade and really put it to the test on small trees, wacking stuff around the yard. I'll tell ya, it's a LOT harder than the 440C usually gets. rockwelled out at 60-61!
 
Hey Eddie,

I'll take the Blue G10 if it's still available. If you'll send your address to me at empty5853@yahoo.com, I'll have a USPS money order out to you tomorrow.

I must have looked at this baby about a gazillion times and just couldn't resist:D

Thanks.

O-1 has a real nice edge holding ability at that hardness. We may have to talk about some work in the future. I will drop you a line when I require your assistance.:D. Great work by the way!
 
Hey Eddie, if you ever make another in a darker Blue G-10 (or even better, Ivory micarta) with a sheath/Clip-back, let me know.
These are absolutely stellar.

Edit: I like slim knives, width is not THAT big an issue, but would prefer to keep it 1 inch or below in width, and .6 inches in thickness). Length should be around 7-8 OAL (or a 3-finger deal would be cool too if you think it's functionally acceptable).
 
empty- blue one is yours! thanks, email sent.

mmm...- can't wait to hear from ya!

seno- I'll shoot you an email asap! thanks!

all- still got an orange one here that needs a home.

thanks,
eddie
