overall length: 15 3/16″
steel: forged from 1/4″ 80CrV2 @ 61 Hc. Distal taper and tapered tang. False swedge
handle: Turning A Dream maple burl, blue moonglow, black G10
handle thickness: 4.5/5
hardware: brass loveless bolts, brass/stainless mosaic pin and brass stainless mosaic tube
bead: includes matching maple burl and blue moonglow bead with flared stainless tube liner
sheath: includes right handed, hand made, hand tooled, Herman Oak leather sheath with reinforced dual snap dangler
I began making PL knives in 2016. I've done leather work for over 20. I added kydex to my repertoire in the last few years. The heat treat on all of my carbon steel knives is done by me in a thermostatically controlled Evenheat knifemaking kiln. Each 80CrV2 blade goes through a multi-stage normalization before being heated to austenitic temperature and quenched in Parks quench oil. Then it goes through a 2 stage tempering process. 80CrV2 Hardness is approx. 61 hc and my heat treat process produces a blade with extreme toughness and fine edge sharpenability. 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.
