Ultralight

[JK Knives]

This is one I`m making for udtjim. He wanted a small, lightweight knife for pocket carry. This one is 6" overall, 2 1/2" blade, 1/8" thick, with 1/8" maroon micarta handles. It weighs 2 3/4 ounces!

OHHHHH!!!! I like that I sure like lightweight knives in my old age. I can just drop that in my vest pocket with my Sagen Saw and go.

Looks like a nice, handy little knife, nothing fancy, just meant to do the job.

Something I would like to comment on though. This BTW is not aimed at this knife in particular but more of a general comment. This knife, as in many others, seems to have fairly "sharp" edges on the handle slabs. (Pic makes it look that way anyway).

It would seem to me that the handle would be more comfortable to use if the edges were a little more rounded. I'm sure this is a personal preference thing but I'm just wondering what you guys might think.

Other than that, I like it.

I REALLY like that. It would fit my pocket carry perfect.

Similiar, this one has a bit more drop to the blade, and handle is much slimmer.

John, this looks like a near perfect EDC! Were the holes in the handle to reduce weight? Is it doable .75 inch tall with a leather sheath with belt clip?

Thanks,

The holes are to reduce weight, and it could be done as you describe.
