Gentlemen:

For your consideration is this Featherweight Hunter in W-2/Stabilized English Walnut. The 3 1/2" hollow ground blade was hand rubbed to 1200 grit and lightly etched to reveal a vivid hamon. The tang extends 3/4 of the way into the handle and is set with G/flex marine grade epoxy and a 1/16" stainless pin. The large weight reduction comes from the use of a solid black G-10 S-guard - neutral balance is just behind the guard where it should be. The English Walnut has lots of marble cake giving the knife elegant character. Fitup between the S-guard and the English Walnut is frog's ass tight.

With its overall length of 7 3/4", very light weight, and the horizontal sheath, this knife can also serve double duty as an EDC. Lots of labor in this knife. :) I hope you like it! The first "I'll take it," PM, or email gets it. $425 delivered CONUS. Paypal preferred to tksteingass@frontier.com. This knife is also listed on my website. Thanks for viewing and your comments are welcome.

V/R,
