A variant of a knife that I deployed with and then sold, and then suddenly had to have another...I really like the newest variant. Differential hardened 5160 with full height convex zero grind and full distal taper both ways.
Was talking about deployment knives in another thread and had an overwhelming urge to make a replacement (first pic) for a knife I carried and sold almost immediately after
The original was the bottom one in this pic-that exposed tang foisted some serious indignity on the skin of my elbow getting in and outta the rig:
And this was it's grandaddy-a customer design that was first built for him by Shiva Ki, and then a couple years later he had me make him one as well-this is the one I did (don't have a pic of the Shiva, though it lived at my house during the build):
A little cutting-2" strip of newsprint, freestanding
