Gentlemen:
For your consideration is my Destroyer subhilt chopper in W-2 and black canvas micarta. This is a handful of a chopper - special consideration was given to the subhilt for comfort with scalloped sides and rounded edges. Differentially heat treated with clay and quenched in Parks 50. The area under the ricasso is large enough to choke up on the blade with a secure hold. 400 grit hand-rubbed finish. The top of the spine was rounded to facilitate batoning. The full flat ground blade was taken to .030" and 25 degree bevels applied - the edge is honed with a paper wheel loaded with green chrome compound and is quite sharp. I hope you like it! The first "I'll take it" gets it. $400 plus $18 shipping. Paypal preferred to tksteingass@frontier.com Maker's lifetime common sense warranty and free sharpening.
Best regards,
TK
.250" W-2 stock
Differential heat treat with clay
Parks 50 quench - double temper
Ht to Rc 59-60
13" OAL
8" Blade - 2" high
Black canvas micarta scales
Thumb serrations on spine
Tapered tang with red liners
Pinned guard and subhilt
316 stainless furniture
8-10 oz Wickett and Craig leather sheath - RH
