Spear point utility in BG-42/Masur Birch

[joelbolden]

I've been making a lot of my Model #1 utilities lately and this is a slightly larger version of that knife. Had some left over BG-42, and it's too expensive to waste a millimeter of it. Blade is 4 3/8 x 1 1/4 inch flatground 3/32 inch BG-42. Has a satin finish, distal taper and convex edge. Scales are Masur Birch stabilized in Nelsonite and finished in Teak Oil and RenWax. Copper/stainless Loveless bolts and copper lanyard tube liner. OAL of 8 1/2 inches and it weighs 4 oz. The sheath is in progress.

Joel I think that is one of the nicest knives to come out if your shop that I've seen. It is beautifully simple, and simply beautiful
