Here's a new one in two of my favorite materials... 52100 steel and Blackwood!
This one feels fast in the hand and very well balanced due to the heavily tapered and hollowed tang. The Coke bottle handle shape indexes well and is very ergonomic.
The 52100 has been triple normalized for fine grain and toughness... the edge is thin and tuned for high performance. Sharp!
African Blackwood is one of my favorite handle materials being naturally oily and needing very little maintenance... it is also one of the densest and hardest woods that exists.
.125" 52100 Steel at ~61-62 RC Hardness
8.5" Total Length - 4.5" Blade
African Blackwood Scales
Black Micarta Pins
Tapered Tang
Hollow Grind
Custom Kydex Sheath - Clicks in with great retention
note - both fullers have small flaws which do not effect performance... however price has been adjusted accordingly.
US Shipping is Included - International Shipping is Available
