Both knives are SOLD! Thank you!
Here are two handmade fixed-blade THK knives. Each is 100% hand-ground, assembled, finished and sharpened by yours truly. I warranty all my work against defects in materials and craftsmanship.
Both sheaths are 100% handmade by my wife Angie and I, using 8-9-oz. vegetable-tanned leather with fully welted and hand-saddle-stitched construction, and are individually wet-formed to their knife. We seal our sheaths with gum tragacanth and neatsfoot oil, allowing for a durable and weather-resistant sheath that can still breathe.
All HT done by Peters' Heat-Treating - the best in the business. Both knives shown here have been Rockwell tested right at 58Rc - a hardness that allows for an excellent balance of edge-holding, toughness and sharpenability.
$160SOLD! Mini-Bowie in O1 tool steel and OD green G10. This has become one of my most popular patterns, a moderately-sized handy blade with plenty of cutting edge and belly, and a crisp, sharp tip.
Full-flat grind, tapered tang, .022" black G10 liners 4" blade, 1.25" at widest point
8.1875" overall
.118" at the spine, full distal taper
.020" behind the edge
OD green G10 scales, black sheath
800-grit hand-rubbed finish
weight: 4.3 oz. (6.8 oz. w/sheath)
$160SOLD!
SOLD! Another staple of my line, this Gent's SideKick in CPM-154 with stabilized red-dyed maple scales, nickel/silver pins and a mosaic pin. Custom features in an elegant yet affordable and hard-working knife you can carry and use with confidence.
Mild-convex grind, tapered tang
3.5" blade, 1" at widest point
8" overall
.100" at the spine, .035" behind the edge - a light, handy knife with a durable edge
Red stabilized maple burl, N/S and mosaic pin, brown sheath
2000-grit hand-rubbed "silk polish" - nearly a mirror. You could read the fine print on a credit application in the reflection on
this blade ;p
weight: 3.1 oz. (5.5 oz. w/sheath)
