Graham Fredeen Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Its been awhile since I posted a blade on here, so thought I better get something up. This is a "camp knife" (actually a bit too short to be a true "camp knife", but thats what the customer has been calling it so I'll stick with it), that I did on commission for a gentleman who does a lot of backpacking who came to me for a knife he could take with him on his adventures. I sat down and did up a couple designs and we got something worked out. And this was the result, enjoy: Forged 5160, differentially hardened 11.5" OAL 6.5" Blade length Olive accent spacer, black poly spacers, Pao Ferro Grip, with mild steel guard, pins, and spacers Just waiting to hear back from the customer with the final decisions about the sheath and then it will be shipped off.

Verga Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Very nice, what is the blade thickness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Fredeen Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 Thanks everyone. Blade thickness is 3/16" with just a hair of distal taper (decreases in thickness by about 1/13", making it roughtly 5/32" right before dropping into the tip taper).
