Home Forums Gear Knives and Blades Some more of Tim's work

This was the first custom knife I ever purchased and it was made by our own Tim Olt (michiganroadkill).

3.5" drop point and a handle about 4.5" long...that's probably the most important part for me and my big mitts. He was gracious to accommodate and the handle measures right at 1.125" at its widest point. Fits me wonderfully. Scales are ironwood with black liners and the blade is A2 ground to 0.16" thick IIRC.

I have used this for all types of tasks. It has cut vegetables, sliced steaks, butchered deer, cut feather sticks and kindling while camping, heck, I even used a baton and hammered it transversely through a 2" diameter oak limb once just to show off to a friend...and the icing on the cake was that it still shaved immediately after.

I haven't had my phone most times I was using it so not a lot off pics. Today I took the pooch for a little hike and figured I would snap a few photos.

Very nice. Tim makes a great knife for sure and is a good guy to deal with.

Just like mine, simply an awesome knife.

The first picture I took of mine. Wife bought it for me as a Christmas present in 2009.
Since then, it has processed deer, hogs and squirrels. I have cleaned fish with it too. 154 CM steel, dyed Camel Bone scales. One of my very favorite knives. After 7 years hard use, it still looks brand new. Sharp too.

I think I have one more set of those green camel bone scales.
