I just finished this one up a minute ago, it is a modified Ti Backpacker. It has a bottle opener, sculpted black/blue G10 scales and flared Ti tubes for secure attachment. It's 100% ground by hand as always and the zero bevel chisel/scandi grind is very sharp! It is carbidized with 70-80 RC Tungsten Carbide for maximum edge retention.

This my first signed Titanium knife, check the new signature.

:D Thanks! It is roughly 5.5" long with a 2" blade and made from .090 6Al4V Ti stock. The knife, sheath and necker cord weigh in at a total of 3 ounces! :eek:

I'm taking orders on these for $120, that includes the sheath and shipping. No fees!
 
That is, without a doubt, the BEST "necker" I have ever seen.

Way to go sir!
 
I like this overall design. big tubes, stubby G10 scale, choil and blade profile, NICE.. I need to get something like this, minus the Ti with a tiny longer blade. I have plenty of Ti I think... we'll talk later about this knife when I can afford to pay you :]

Sounds excellent! The new Santoku and Bushcraft will be cool too, then the Wakichete! :cool:
 
That. Is. Awesome.

Daniel- This might be a good candidate for the order we discussed a few months ago for delivery early august. Having the grip would be a bonus.
 
The scales with the large tubes look great. This forum is enjoyable in the unexpected way of seeeing a talented knife maker's craft evolve.

Much appreciated! I do feel like things are slowly falling into place. Thanks!
 
Dude, I really like that. But now I feel that my carbidized backpacker is missing something...hmmm...

Did you happen to get the pics of it after you did the flame carbidization?

I never did, it has been snowing here and the lighting is pretty bad. I got some nice flames on it then blended them in with more heat coloring, it looks really good. Sorry I didn't get them but I think you'll love it, they came out nicely!
