Knife of the day.....Jan 3rd 2015

[Grand Torino]

This one is around 11" OAL with a blade right around 5 7/8". It's made from 1/4" thick 1095 carbon steel professionally heat treated to a RC of 60. The scales are a combination of black G10 and red linen micarta with grey liners. It has two choils and an unsharpened swedge or false edge. I really like the ergonomics on this knife and as you see fits very well in a mans hand. It also has jimping along the spine just forward of the scales.

 

I've applied mineral oil to the knife and haven't wiped it all off yet. That's why it's so shiny.

 

 

 

The reason for the two choils is for more delicate or close up work and you can see how well the fingers fit.

Another great knife. I love a good carbon blade. It matches nice with that color combination.

I like that rib on the spine, gives it a bit of a "300"(as in the film, SPARTANS!!! :P ) look. As always, your knives are top notch man, as soon as I have available funds I'm going to commission you for a larger fixed blade boot knife. :D
