Tighe Tac Tanto

[muddy672]

Picked this up from Brian at the Canadian Knifemaker Guild show this morning. Always great to speak with Brian and view his line up. I was taken by a damasteel Breaker he had on the table but this Tac just melted into my hand. I wish I still owned one of his original Tighe Tac linerlocks for the side by side compare.

3 1/2 RWL34 blade, 4 3/4 closed length. Smooth, solid lock up, fires fast.

Some glare on the photos but hopefully they show the knife reasonably well.













Taking a second run at some pics to show off the grinds.

Congratz.
That's one pointy dual grind.

Very nice Matt - congrats. Sorry I missed you at the show. I picked up a nice little Sylvester damascus integral.

Thanks Rolf and Roger. I spoke to David for a few minutes, I had purchased 2 of his JS test knives a few years back in addition to placing an order. He had a great table with 3 of the smaller integrals when I was there. I got a peak at his personal Lin Rhea small utility as well.

That's a wonderful version, for sure....and the screws are a giveaway that these are extremely rare models.....cherish it, it's a special one!

Lucky man... I've been waiting to score one since I've seen it on Jim Skelton's youtube channel from last year's BLADE. Brian's shop got flooded right after blade and he's been in rebuilding mode ever since... So he's been able to get a few knives made here and there from the help of friends.
