Summer Slip Joints

"If it's not damascus and it has that fish on the tang, it's got to be W2."

Don't know about that. I've got a fish on the tang, but my Sunfish forge slipjoint is 01 :)

It's a bigger fish though.

You got me! I did use a lot of 01 back in the mid 90s'. Good stuff! :cool:
 
Thanks for all the kind words folks. Much appreciated!

Here's a big one, 4.75" closed. Smokin stag and W2 blade steel at a 62 Rc hardness. :D





 
I should have snapped this photo after I got the shields in today, but wasn't thinking.

I sure am liking this latest batch of stag! More to come later later in the week.

 
I can´t wait to see these beauties finished Don.

I assume the stag is sambar? I´m asking cause I have a lot of good textured, and coloured red deer antlers and for small folder scales, I think they could be made thick enough, without getting into the pithed core.

Thanks for sharing.

Not one I wouldn't love to own, but the last one is so right. The stag is perfect on this design. Thanks fo sharing and making me envious.
