Hank “Godogs57” makes some great knives, both in fit and function, but also impressive to look at. He’s also a total “Pimp’n Dealer” who has no mercy for those who want a nice blade...Why stop at owning one knife, when you can have 3 or 7 knives made by Hank? GD57 see’s a weakness and instead of pointing a guy towards a 1-800 help line. He txt’s you a picture of a new blade he’s working on. Then the Georgia Redneck sets the hook by saying “I can make you one just like it”. Total Dick! This knife I actually saw Hank had made for our member “Local Dirt”. LD had posted a picture of it which caused me to fire off a PM asking if he’d have an issue with me ripping off his knife? Local Dirt was very cool not having any issue with me asking Hank to make me one like his....Thanks Hank and LD!

That was the first blade I bought off Hank, it now resides on a pards hip in montana. He uses it daily ranchin, he's pretty impressed with the edge holding capability's....

Hank, super nice knives - what hardness is the heat-treat on the CPM-154?

SLM- That's a beauty! With all of these knives getting produced, I worry Hank isn't chasing whitetails. All work and no play.......

Hank, super nice knives - what hardness is the heat-treat on the CPM-154? I noted it on the Certificate of Origin I provide with each knife. That particular one was either 60.0 or 60.5 if I remember correctly. With my heat treat and temper process I always get 60-61 Rockwell.....9 times out of 10 its 60.5.
