I love making knives, and I was told that I need to start selling them here.....
These two are models that I will continue to make and release. I'm really going to miss these.
These knives are Handmade.
I make my knives without lots of fixturing that you often see now a days, and definitely not with a laser, or cnc machining. I didn't just hit the Start Button, and out pops a knife. I use lots of saws, files, scribes, and grinder belts.
These knives are Not perfect. They have scratches, scuffs, and wonky bevels.
I free hand grind on my 2x72" belt grinder to my thickness, then I Hand grind on bench stones to my final sharp edge. That's why my edges are ugly. I'm more worried about not ruining my heat treating, than what the knife looks like all scratched up.
Do Not buy my knives if you are looking for showpieces..... Seriously. However, I will continuously work on perfecting My processes. My knives slowly are looking better and better, but I promise to never lose my charm..... Ha.
Again, it's better off that you don't buy my knives.
Now, after I scared you off.... I'm letting go of two beauties. These are a couple prototypes.
I already have more material for my next ones, I love them that much. I'm going to make them again, and again.
Back Road's Wanderer (3V) $300.00
Professionally heat treated @ Bos Heat Treating 60.9 HRC .143" at spine, 1.49" tall, 7" long blade, 11.625" total. .742" thick handle 9.1 oz. Knife.
Convex/Appleseed grind. Approx .025-.030" bte
Kydex sheath, belt clip edge forward. Very comfortable to carry 7" blade at 5 o-clock.
*This Knife feels Amazing! It's very dagger like and well balanced. It's truly a one knife does it all.
(I used it some, tested it, battoned a few small logs) it has a raw surface on the spine from heat treating. This Knife is rough looking, yet beautiful.
Both knives have a unique scale material.
I work in automation. I scavenged this material. I crawled into a machine that was being scraped in order to get This. I have enough for maybe 20 knives? Then no more. The company I got this from uses a different material now, because this material is too expensive.
I was told it's called Armour -X.
It's rubber-like. Smells a bit like rubber.
It feels somewhat like a mixture between UHMW and rubber. It's very dense, but very grippy. I love it. Most glues don't adhere well, I tested many. I found one that I have some confidence in. See my Instagram for further testing, or ask me about it. * If these scales ever fail (they are flared on with nickle/copper alloy tubing and epoxy) obviously ship the knife back to me and I will work with you one a different material that best suits you. I stand behind My work.
C4 model (smaller) $200.00
Price includes shipping. Lower USA only at this time, I'm sorry.
I can pick/refuse any offer
Must be 21 years or older

Thanks Bladeforum
