Most recent off the e bench are two sheepsfoot utility EDC knives. These are great all around user blades. The first time I made this design was for an EOD tech that wanted something unobtrusive for the demo range.
One is in Z-Max the other in S90V with tapered tangs, rounded spines and 30 LPI thumb serrations. Both feature OD green linen micarta with orange G10 and natural linen micarta liners. Secured with a large Titanium corby bolt and orange G10 lanyard tube, as well as G-flex epoxy. The handles are contoured and finished to 600 grid to give excellent wet traction.
These are the first blades to feature my new makers mark, and I am excited by how the mark turned out! It pays homage to my time as a River Rat (boat hull) with my name over it. Still playing around with placement.
