D2 Bushcraft Custom

Stefano — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 11:38:24 +0000

Here it is a Bushcraft in D2 4,2mm thick steel, hardened to 58 HRC. Blade 12 cm flat with the spine in full thickness for optimum resistance. Overall 25 cm.
Red cotton and orange burlap micarta handmade by me also and three nickelsilver loveless rivet for added strength. I suppose this is a real tough to use. I made this handle scales thich and very rounded because the customer asked to me to do for that way. I suppose it was a really excellent way, because they are very confortable.

Handmade sheat with handmade stamps, the leather is tanned with a canyon tan and then finished with Resolene.

Love Kiridashi

Small but hell razor sharp with his half convex grind.
Made by O2 steel, purpleheart and home made pins. Also the leather sheat is stamped with home made stamps.
Big… overall 7cm. Love kiridashi because it’s the knife forged for my love, always in her bag.

It’s cute. It’s love driven.

A rustic knife, made for my brother in law.
He wanted a nice knife, sturdy, for several tasks from the sea to the hills.
And also he is was focused on performance rather than rust.
O2 steel is oaky for this tasks…

Blade in O2 steel, 3,6mm thick, 9cm long. Overall about 20cm. Finished in brut the forge and then slightly screubbed with 2000 grit paper.
Handles in Ovangkol, oiled, black spacers.
Sheat in 4mm thick leather, oiled and finished with resolene. Hand stitched with double needles, as the ol’ times.
Sturdier than knife…

He loved it.
