The upland gamebird knife
#305871 - 01/10/17 02:52 PM

I had designed this one a while back but and had ground the blades so decided to finish these on spec so they are for sale
A good friend had given me a piece of beech burl and thought to use it on this smaller handled knife as it had some barkpockets I had to fill and would not suit anything larger. Did another one in buffalo horn and one in walnut as well

2.2mm - .09 15N20 steel. 90x20mm blade (3 1/2x3/4)

Looks like a handy little knife - huge picture files, though. None allowed seeing the whole knife for me, but after uploaded them to my desktop, I was able to view them. Nice indeed.

What steel do you use in the bird knives and the scalpel knife?

It is 1084 for the field scalpel and 15N20 for the bird knives, both carbon steelsthat take and keep a good edge at about 60Rc
