my new EDC

cts-204p said to be liek SS M4 and much like 20cv so we will see
Carpenter gave me a bit to test a while back and im jsut now getting to it
all standard stuff Ti framelock bolster and clip SS hardware and ironwood burl scale

 

Yowzaa!
That looks great Butch!
And that Ironwood looks incredible!

 

it was in my "scrap" bin. anytime i can skim off a 1/8 inc slab and still have wood from the block do the planned handle i save it for those jsut in case i do a folder times
i still remember when Mark F. gave a few makers a block of wood to get burlsource name out i ended up making 3 knives with it where as the other makers only ended up with one

 

Looks great. You going to do some testing on the blade?

 

yes the blade steel is new to me and is a higher alloy but being powdersteel is still very fine grain. hardness shoudl be 60-61 rc but im not getting it RC tested till after i have a chance to cut stuff and review if its chippy. i will treat it like any of my pocket knives and see how it holds up

 

I love you....

 

Oh wow!! That looks awesome:cool1
