TheoRockNazz Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 I am happy to finally show off the economy custom chopper series we've been working on the past six months! The blades are all 80CrV2 high carbon tool steel forged to shape, rough ground, and heat treated by yours truly; then final ground and assembled by Justin Kirck, who also made the leather sheathes. Handle materials include stabilized burls, hybrids, micartas, and hardwoods. While this isn't the completed set, the choppers here are great representation of the fun materials we got to play with. Truthfully, and I will only say it here; this was way more work than we thought it was going to be, and we struggled to keep up with the timeframe the whole time. Who knew teaching and do a run of knives would be a lot for just two people?! :3 More collaborations are on the horizon, I will keep yall in the loop!

HojPoj Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Mighty spiffy! Hard to tell from the angle presented, are they hollow ground, or some other profile? Just a personal thing, but I'm not sure I'd like the emblem being raised so prominently on the handle. Looks good, just cant imagine it'd be particularly comfortable when using these blades the way they're meant to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
