Three throwing/camp knives

[Bill Siegle]

I still have a love for useful throwing knives from my childhood. It started with the Mountain Man rendezvous knives I loved the big throwers that served double duty as camp knives. Just plain fun blades!!! I’ve made a bunch of these types over the years and figured I’d post up a few. These are reminiscent of the Tru-Bal style knives. All of these are made of .200in thick 5160. Bevels are flat ground. Scales are G10 and attached with epoxy and flared tube fasteners. Sheaths are black Boltaron. Price for each one is $200 shipped in the US.

Cool stuff. I’d likely get hurt goofing around with these.

This is when I wish my mom wouldn’t have said YOU KNOW BETTER! I still want a couple though

Remember they also work great as heavy duty camp knives too

These are cool! What’s the temper hardness of these? Do they still hold an edge pretty well?

I temper them around 55-57rc so they hold up decently for cutting. The steel thickness and bevel angles help with structural stability.
