Last year, I gave one of Tim's knives to my brother in law. He hunts, and just did not have a decent knife. It was hard to let that knife go.
Tim has replaced it with one of his "High Country Hunter" models. This one is with CM 154 steel, at 61RC. Cryo treated.
The blade is 3.5 inches, the antique Micarta handle is robust, and 4.5 inches long. Feels perfect in the hand. I just can't stand the tiny little handles most makers put on their knives. Most are, for me, too short, and to thin. This one is just right.
Hair popping sharp out of the box, and with that steel and that RC, it should hold an edge. Doug Haas made the sheath. It is top quality as always for him.
This one is for processing dead hogs.

Beautiful knife and sheath, Sam. I really like that handle material.

Obviously the material is kinda old as you can see the edge discoloration from time. It is from a large block used inside turbins, etc.
Does that mean it is probably "G.E." material?????
Any of you experts on that stuff have any idea????
Tim

no matter,its a beautiful material for knife scales, and it's just right for a hard use working blade.

nice!

That'll work!

Odds are VERY good it is Westinghouse Micarta.

Very nice looking blade!

I agree that it is Westinghouse. I have a big piece on one of my grinders that looks the same.

Looks like a solidly built tool. And made to fit those mitts of yours too. Very nice all the way around.

Love his work

good stuff!

Tims stuff just does not disappoint. Quality from start to finish

My son took his first deer on his new property this morning. Bow season still in effect. He called me to come out and help him process it. Only 8 miles from my house to his patch of swamp and woods.
A cull spike, but meat for the freezer. Heavy little bugger.
I used the new knife from Tim to skin and process him. It performs just like I thought it would. Razor sharp from beginning to end, and that included cutting up through the chest.
Simply a great knife.

Putting a fine tool to work is a beautiful thing!
