Heres one of the things I do when Im not playing with lock stuff.
Its been keeping me away too much latley!
Blade is 1/8" thick O1 toolsteel with the heat treat scale left on.
Its a true user and I have been enjoying putting it through its paces.
(the earlier versions, this one hasnt cut a thing besides my leg hair)
Its been used for everything from food prep to fire prep and everything in between!
Sheath will be IWB kydex.
What do you think guys?

Very nice. Do you hand sharpen? The re-curves always give me trouble.

Thanks guys!
I have certainly been influenced by the thousands of amazing knives I have seen over the years. Ken Onions work is fantastic!
Will have to see if I can find pics of the others.
I do hand sharpen at times but this was sharpened on the Tormek T7.
Its been my go to for a while now as I was toying with the idea of a sharpening business but concluded I didnt have time!

I said this once before and it seems relevant again, "THERE'S NO SAFE WORD HERE". ;)
