3rd Completed Knife
Took the grinds allot higher on this one.... think I might be actually learning something here . 3/16 O1 , hollow ground , black G10 , 7.5 OAL , 3.25 edge . Contoured the handle a bit as well. Better than the last one ?
This one heads off as a gift to a good friend in Louisiana tomorrow.








thanks.. John

today was a god day...allot of shop time , have one that is ready for scales and another ready for HT this week , and 4 ATS34 Blades that I need to get sent out for HT.

Haven't yet looked at your others, but this looks fantastic. Very simple and clean. The high grind line looks very good. Keep them coming. Jason.

Looks great John, especially for just your 3rd knife!! I agree with the others about the higher grind. I'm sure your friend will love it.

Sweet!!! You have some good things going on there. Very nice job on getting very smooth flow on the handle. I also like the higher grinds as well. Keep it up!!!
