Utility knife in Crucible Laminate and Goncalo Alves

[Matthew Gregory]

I made this small utility knife for a good friend, inspired by a small piece of this wonderful, wonderful Crucible laminated steel that I didn’t want to go to waste.

The 3-1/2” blade consists of .150” thick Crucible Laminate CPM-10v core/CPM154 cladding, ground to almost zero.

The handle is frame construction with a black G10 frame and Goncalo Alves handles. A simple carbon fiber pin completes the package, along with a matched leather sheath with contrasting gold stitching, made by my wife.

As always, thanks for looking!

Now this is a utility knife that will out preform any other one. As always your work is in a class by itself.

That's a beauty Matt, I remember that steel when I visited you and admired it then, this one looks really nice and just a bit sharp too !

That sheath does a nice job of complimenting it as well, JG certainly is gaining popularity

Nice. Great lines and very clean work. Sheath is a great match for the knife.

Beautiful Matt. Everything you need, nothing you don't.

That little guy masquerades as having straight lines.... But we know better. Hardly one.

It looks stabby.

JG killin' it!
