Something a bit different from Russ Andrews

[Danbo]

Out of all the knives I've owned made by Russ Andrews, few have ever been used by me. Reason being, they're too fargin pretty and fancy!

So, I got the idea for Russ to make me a user, similar to what I normally make(read, no handles)

Well, Russ,(as usual), knocked this project out of the ballpark. Specs on this little jewel are:

ElMax blade steel at probably 61 Rockwell(maybe a bit harder)
Overall length is about 6.25".
Flat ground down to a super thin edge.
Handrubbed finish(dontcha just hate those guys who can actually get ALL the scratches to go the same direction?)

Gonna have a nice little leather crossdraw belt sheath, too.

And, yes, I'm gonna carry and use this one! :thumbup:

Handles are vastly overrated!

Definitley different for Russ and definitely nails the assignment. I'm sure it will make a handy little cutter. Though I suspect that you would be more inclined to actually use it had you requested that Russ leave a belt fininsh on the blade.

Right on, Danbo.
