Choke up utility blade, blue maple burl

Handmade from 1/8th thick industrial circular saw steel, recycled from a now defunct North Idaho lumber mill. Etched tool steel (8670, similar to L6 ) is oil heat treated and tempered making a razor sharp edge that is easy to resharpen with the strop provided. Finger groove to choke up on allows for a bigger blade in a smaller package. Slightly upswept blade works well for everything, it's the blade shape I carry.

• Handle is stabilized blue maple burl with black liners and copper fittings.
• Over all length is 8 inches, 3.75 inch cutting edge.
• Horizontal carry leather sheath.  I wet form it to conform to the knife for a snug fit. Worn on the left front for right hand draw, concealable under a long shirt.
