Lean and Mean

[srtben]

Just finished these up last week. It is a new model I am calling my BDU Fighter. Although these two have a false top edge, I will offer it as an option to have it sharp.
These are the opposite of my recent wingman knives, with their large handles and generous polished choils, these will fit even the beefiest paws. The blades on both are 3/16" CPM 3v with a dark acid washed finish. The sheaths are hand stitched ( and dyed) veg tan leather in a scout style horizontal carry. I use my own home made leather wax to finish them off. The first one is some really nice "straight" grain Desert Ironwood and the second is Thunderstorm kevlar. Both have thick black g10 liners. OAL is 10 1/4" with a blade a hair under 5".

Thanks for looking, and as always all comments are welcome.

This is a very good knife and design. Anyone would be proud to carry that.

Might be my favorite design of yours to date. Well done Ben

Looks like a great self defense knife. Well done.

Wow, I really like that design.  I've no idea how you guys get those plunge lines so perfect.  Hopefully one day I'll get mine close to that.

Thanks very much everyone!

Slow and steady, it's one of the tricky bits to get right.

Nice design, clean grinds and overall great knife.
