Available for $148 shipped.
Drop point Smilodon. 1/8” 80crv2, scandi, matt finish. Stainless hardware with dual tubes, Red firedog micarta. 4" Blade 8 3/4" Overall.
The Smilodon includes a bowdrill divot. I didn't put one on yet, but if you want one (or two) let me know.
Sheaths are available. Leather & Kydex. Ask and I'll give you info.
I began making PL knives 4 years ago. I've done leather work for around 20. I added kydex to my repertoire in the last 2 years. The heat treat on all of my carbon steel knives is done by me in a thermostatically controlled Evenheat knifemaking kiln. Each blade goes through a 3 stage normalization process, followed by heating to austenitic temperature and quench in Parks 50 oil. Then it goes through a 2 stage tempering process. Target hardness is 60 rhc. Scales are glued with West Systems G-flex epoxy. My aim is to produce heirloom quality tools with excellent craftsmanship that will provide a lifetime of enjoyment and service.
