My 7th knife and first attempt at a hidden tang. Got a long way to go. You guys do some gorgeous work!

That looks great!

Where did you get the trout micarta?

It’s called gcarta and it will hopefully be the last time I use it, they’re out of Idaho. Layers blow out easily while shaping and hard to finish.

Where is a good place to get micarta?

Ok thanks for the heads up sweet looking though.

I think the folks on here will like this one. Based off the victorinox boning knife blade shape that is generally loved and accepted. Its downfall though is its soft steel and atrocious handle. This one is .079” 14c28n at 63 hrc

Field dressed and quartered 2.5 elk with my yardbird in 10v from @Slalomnorth last weekend. Not a stone or strop in sight. Extremely impressed.

I hate to make him any more popular for my own selfish reasons. But…I only stumbled onto him from a poster here on RS..

I guess you do the half tang to save weight? The steel looks pretty thin too, so I imagine all those factors add up to more weight savings. Are all the handles micarta? Terotuf might save a fraction more weight off the handle.

Yep exactly, thin stock and thin grinds. Geometry cuts and is the number factor in edge retention over everything: steel, heat treat, etc. terotuf is a tad lighter but some find it gets too grimy
