HISTORY OF THE KNIFE
Throughout my woodworking and tool making career I have used many different knives, but I find myself always reaching for a knife I made in a woodworking class back in the early 2000's. The knife featured a 1/2" wide spear point blade, thin flat handle and an incorporated sheath that protects the sharp edge. I have combined these features with a few special touches to create a high quality layout tool that will last for generations.
SPECIFICATIONS
The knife is approximately 6 3/4" long, 11/16" wide, 5/16" thick and weighs on average 2 ounces*. The blade is 1095 spring steel with a Rockwell hardness of 60-62 HRC. The exposed blade is 2" long, 1/2" wide, 1/16" thick and features a 50 degree spear point with the primary grind of 25 degrees and has a 30 degree micro bevel. The fitted sheath has a rare earth magnet embedded inside to keep it in place. All knives are finished by hand and are buffed and waxed to help protect the knives.
