S30V stainless steel, stabilized Buckeye burl, linseed oil finish, Corby bolts and NS lanyard tube. Kind of a Sandi grind with a square spine. http://www.musicmadeknives.com/index.html Knives are mans best friend........dogs are pretty cool too!

Thanks Chootem! Rick does a fine job no doubt about it. This one came out at 61rc. I could adjust my temper for 62, but hey, this'll shave a Sasquatch beard.

OP gmusic Campfire Member G Joined: Dec 2015 Posts: 104 Piute Mountains	That's it Larry. I thought it would be kinda cool to dot the eye like that. I also test about 1/8" up from the edge near the center of the blade, that dot gets ground off. Thank you Sako! Glad you liked it and thanks for the feedback. http://www.musicmadeknives.com/index.html Knives are mans best friend........dogs are pretty cool too!
