I got back to work on the last Cooks Knife that went with this batch. After the quench and tempering I was disappointed that this knife was not dead straight as the rest were. I broke down and shimmed it up and straightened her out. Took several tries, but nothing ever goes completely smooth. I will be finishing it up over the next few weeks.
I also took the S110V Jack knife with Quilted maple and modified the blade. It was close to 1.55" wide at the plunge. That width is not comfortable or pleasing for me to use in the field so I narrowed the blade a bit to right at 1.3" wide. I then reground it with the same geometry as my kitchen knives, very slight convex. I have not used it much yet, but it looks a lot more maneuverable already. Then I used some of my new Nomad Kryptek Kydex to sheath it. First time I have used kydex with wood. I hope to get some pictures later today and share the "new" package with you.
