Hello again everyone!
I made a utility knife out of Uddeholm's sleipner steel which I have been using in the bulk of my creations and according to the company, it is a thougher and all around better version of the classic D2 that we all know although it has less chromium. You can check details on the internet about it.
It is 6mm thick at the spine and hardened at about 60 to 61 hrc. The flats have a 600 grit satin finish and the bevels an acid stonewash. The sheath is made out of kydex and the handle was made by me with black fiberglass resin and wood chips. The pins are from 8mm thick copper.
Take a look at the pictures and let me know what you think!
