I received my custom Fugitive from James today!!!
:thumbup:
A few of the quick details:
6.5" long blade (6.75" from edge of handle scales), 11.5" OAL
1.75" wide edge-to-spine
Full-flat grind, hand satin finished
0.22" thick Elmax at 60 Rockwell "C"
(HT'd by Peters)
OD Green G10 handle scales with Hunter Green G10 liners
7/8" thick handle with tapered tang and extra-wide lanyard hole
"Circle of Light" pattern 1/4" mosaic pin Corby bolt caps
Lightly crowned thumb ramp and clip
Crisply squared, straight spine
Custom leather sheath with pocket
Matching firesteel
343.1g (12.1oz), 596.2g (21oz) with sheath and accessories
James delivered exactly what I had in my head for this knife, and I couldn't be happier!!!
Thank you SO much James! :thumbup:
I have to mention, this knife came with the sharpest edge I've ever received from any maker. However, I need to admit to having sharpened and stropped it already.
Now it is truly a LASER!!!
It easily push cuts phonebook paper...
(I like my edges to be screaming sharp...) This knife is going to be one hell of a slicer, at about 30 degrees inclusive and only 0.025" (measured) behind the edge.
:thumbup:
Anyway, enough chit-chat.
I'll let the pics do the rest of the talking. 














The light kinda sucks outside today, so I promise that I will get some better shots later. I'll shine up those mosaic pins with a little Flitz in the mean time.
