Little Bird and Trout- 80CrV2, stag, and filework
Here's a small game knife that was commissioned by an avid game bird hunter. It's very small, very thin and VERY sharp. I think the 80CrV2 is a really nice choice for this. It takes and holds a wicked edge and has the strength and toughness to support a really thin edge so it's a good slicer.
Another tough one to photograph. This mostly wraps up a whole run of smaller, simpler knives for me. Now it's on to the big stuff. Specs: 80CrV2 steel 6 7/8"overall w/ 2 7/8" of edge, .110" at the ricasso Nice distal taper "Twisted Steel" filework Amber Stag scales Gold plated screws (with 3 hidden alignment pins to keep everything in the same place every time) __________________ John Doyle You have nothing to fear but fear itself...........and bears. |
