Are you set on the index finger notch for this one Lorien?
Not a big fan of pronounced notches on handles scales TBT.
What are all the steel options for this? Elmax or another tough stainless would be a coo addition to d3vl! Did you say 80crv2?!
Here ya go3/8" linen micarta will provide a lot of material to work with, and although I ordered 3/16" steel I will be getting it machined down to around .15- .16", which will provide a handle with a minumum thickness of 1/2"
some general changes to the sketch I posted are; a slightly less 'locked in' handle design, more belly and a wider blade. This will be a great general purpose cutter, and by that I mean you'll be able to cut your food with it, as well as a number of other things.
the blade is around 4.25" and the handle very slightly longer than that
So when's the pre-order start....
Next week apparently
