Super Bushcraft

[Bill Siegle]

So about a year ago I had an idea for a chunky Bushcraft knife. I had it in the works and when I went to flare/set the tube fasteners, the handle material split. Some foul language ensued and I cast the piece on a shelf till today. I finally replaced the scale material with some black G10. I did a simple shaping on the scales with a trim router and sharpened it up Kinda digging it!

This has a 5in blade tip to handle. It’s 9 5/8in overall and weighs in at 10 1/2oz. It’s a fun little diversion from “normal” The blade is indeed 1/4in 5160.
