Whittlemakers are here. I'll have more handle options as I finish them.
$160 + 12 CONUS Shipping
click here to view / order
model: Whittlemaker
grind: "pro" scandi @ 10 degrees per side
serial number: 6
blade length: 3″
overall length: 7 5/8″
steel: 0.1″ 80CrV2 @ 61 Hc
handle: bead blast black canvas micarta
hardware: copper pin and tube
sheath: includes kydex sheath only
I've added the option to add kydex accessories to the website. This includes belt mounts and firesteel loops. Check it out.
I've been producing PL knives for the past 8 years. I've done leather work for over 20 and kydex for 5 years. The heat treat on all of my carbon steel knives is done by me in a thermostatically controlled Evenheat knifemaking kiln. Each 80CrV2 blade goes through a multi-stage normalization before being heated to austenitic temperature and quenched in Parks quench oil. Then it goes through a 2 stage tempering process. 80CrV2 Hardness is approx. 61-62 hc and my heat treat process produces a blade with extreme toughness and fine edge sharpenability. Scales are glued with West Systems G-flex epoxy. My aim is to produce heirloom quality tools with excellent craftsmanship that will provide a lifetime of enjoyment and service.
