Stats
Length - 240mm
Height (at heel) - 55mm
Steel - CPM-154 (Crucible Particle Metallurgy aka stainless powdered steel)
Hardness - Rc61-62
Handle Style - Yo (hidden tang western)
Handle Materials - English Sycamore with amboyna burl ferrule & G10 spacers
The wood used in the handle is English Sycamore, it's not a common wood in the US in block form, it's mostly used as a veneer and for guitar making so this isn't something you can expect to see too often. The tone is soft, the color is very blond, and has rich chatoyance. I tried my best to capture the features in different lighting but as usual pictures don't duplicate this type of character very well. It's a different look than I normally provide, I just wanted to try this color combo and see if it worked. What do you think of it?
Oh and the feeling of this sycamore is really nice, it's got a great wood feeling in the hand, not at all plastic-y.
Price - $550 (shipping included to USA / International will pay all costs over $25)
If you're interested in purchasing this knife please contact via PM or email along with your Paypal email address (for the invoice). If international, please specify country.
Thanks for looking!
