These are the signature series SDFK with internal skeletonization for weight reduction, thumb ramp jimping and the primaries were ground by hand with our shallow S grind that we developed for (and usually win) competitive blade sports. This is thinner, lighter and cuts very well, which is a good CPK signature knife.
This is a full 1/4" of Delta 3V goodness
7" blade length, 12 1/4" total length, 17 oz (14.5 oz for the Signature series)
Despite the significant amount of blade on this big girl it does just balance on the first finger. The handle is designed to accommodate a three-finger grip to get a little extra length for some use as a small chopper.
Sharpened 22 DPS, HRC 60.5
Highly corrosion resistant (for a tool steel), good abrasive wear resistance, practically unbreakable, and with the Delta heat treat it has good edge stability and will remain sharp in all kinds of crazy use that would wreck most knives. Comes with one of the best sheaths in the business.
Despite being practically unbreakable, our primary grind geometry isn't overly obtuse and our thickness behind the edge is pretty reasonable. These knives cut like you would expect from us. We know what we're doing.
$488 ($475 plus $13 shipping) for the basic series (this is a lot of knife for the money)
Your choice of black or natural micarta scales.
There are also some special options:
OD Green canvas +$10
Burlap Micarta
Fully machined titanium screws +$15
There are 10 knives available in this sale
To place an order stake your claim in this thread and Jo will contact you to finalize your order. If you don't hear from her by mid week next week, contact her at jocarothers at g mail dought com
^folks who are posting here to purchase a knife that don't have an email listed in their profile and also aren't set up to get PM's (because they don't have a gold membership), Jo can't contact you so you will need to send her an email
If sales tax is due (due to your location) your order will be discounted so the total is the same as everybody else.
Shipping is already built into the price (BF policy) but if you get more than one the additional shipping will be deducted from your total.
Since these are being built to order it can take a few weeks to get everybody shipped.
Come here in two weeks for a larger (final) sale of the Signature series SDFK.
Thank you. Jo, Mark, Bo, Ben and I appreciate you.
Sadie dog does not. Sadie is the worst.
BTW, we have a website that we post some old inventory on sometimes if anybody is interested. https://carothersknives.com/shop/
