Hi Dogs,
This is my second little edc knife in this style. After seeing Ryan Minchew's great little B&T's a few posts down, I'd like to do one of these with torx'd on bolsters rather than peened. That way I can get some heat color on them without knocking it off when I grind the pins flush. This one is as follows:
OAL - 5.75 inches of ATS-34
Blade - 2.5 inches hollow ground
Bolsters - 1095 ht'd and tempered
Handle - mammoth (from our own motherofpearl) with hidden pins
I welcome any comments.
Thanks for looking,
David
