Hello!

That's a very interesting piece of steel you have there! I have four questions:
- Thickness? looks like ~3/16 from the pictures...
- Any idea of the hardness?
- Through/differential hardened?
- Is there any holes under the epoxy to attach a handle?

Thanks! :thumbup:
 
oops, sorry I missed your post:eek:.

-it's around 4mm thick
-it's differentially hardened, and my guess would be around 58/59 at the edge
-the handle is epoxied, so I don't know about holes, although since it's diff hardened, the handle may yet be soft enough to drill holes

It is a forged knife, thought I should mention that.
 
Let's take another look at this great knife!
