I have a nice hunting knife up for sale. This would be a great one for the upcoming hunting season or just to add to your collection. It's a great all around size for game and has a lot of features that would make it very user friendly in the field. This knife is slim and light, yet very stout capable of hard use on the biggest game. It is very comfortable in hand and comes razor sharp.
Specs:
Hand forged from 1075 steel, differentially hardened using time/temp control with my salt tanks. There is a visible quench line.
8" overall, 3 3/4" blade(3 3/8" sharp), .195" thick at the ricasso with full distal taper to the point
Filed and rounded, two-tone thumb grip, very comfortable, no 'bite'
Heavily rounded spine and ricasso edge for comfort
Hand sanded to a very nice even 1000 grit satin finish
Black g-10 synthetic guard, very strong and very durable, does not show any wear easily
Coined stainless steel spacer
Stabilized amboyna burl handle that has been file carved and nicely contoured. Very nice oil finish. Fits my hand like a glove. The rings do add some grip but are NOT sharp. They almost can't be felt in hand, even with a tight squeeze grip. Nice taper to the guard forward of the rings and elegant contouring curves behind the rings.
Stainless steel checkered finial nut.
This is NOT a takedown. This comes with the black leather sheath shown, also made by me. It is hand stitched and tooled and fits the knife very well. This knife is razor sharp and ready to ship.
Price is SOLD and includes the sheath and shipping to the US and any paypal fees. I will accept paypal, check or money order. Funds must clear prior to shipping. International buyers welcome but must pay actual shipping charges.
PM me with questions or you may email me with questions or to be added to my email list for notice of available pieces. jdoyleknives AT gmail DOT com
Thanks.
