I decided to design a Bushcraft knife and get away from the traditional, so here's what I came up with. I hope you like it! Satin finished O-1, 5/32" stock, 3.75" blade, 8" OAL, Scandi grind blade with small secondary bevel, dovetailed linen micarta bolsters, micarta pins and thong liner, index finger groove, thumb grooves on spine, tapered tang with black liners on Maple Burl Scales. The knife comes with a leather custom sheath by Tree Stump leather and an additional right hand horizontal ride kydex sheath I made. I like the tapered tang on this Bushcraft - it puts the weight up front for chopping but it's lighter in the hand for control. First I'll take it gets it. Please email me for Paypal instructions. $260 delivered USPS Priority Mail/Insured
Best regards,

T.K. Steingass

That is one gorgeous knife! I love the design, the maple burl...everything!
 
Wish I wasn't in love with my bushcraft knife. This is right up my alley.

Squishware:

Singular love only applies to a wife, of which you may only keep one. On the other hand, you can keep and love as many knives as you want with no legal consequences!

Hey TK, I sure like your knife. Can you tell me what you've used for the thong hole?? and, where to get such?

regards, m

Sure, glad to help. It's a carbon arrow shaft!! I use two sizes - the newer Easton carbon shafts which is what you see on the bigger bushcraft knife shown below. On the smaller hunter I use a cut out of an old Beman super slim shaft they don't make any more. I'm sure one of your hunting buddies has a broken carbon shaft or two he'll part with. If not, I can help you out.

Best regards,

TK
