    Description

    This carving knife is hand made . Blades are Laurin high Carbon steel. They are made in Finland .They hold a edge well. These blades are used by top knife manufactures . One blade is 84mm or  3 5/16 long Rockwell Hardness of 59. The other blade is 62mm or 2 3/8 long. It is Laurin PT blade Progressive Temper at 63 Rockwell Hardness. I am really impressed with the PT blade. Blades are just over 5/8 at base .130 thick.The PT blade brings up the price of knife some. The handle is made of  Mopani wood. Mopani is a very hard an dense wood. It will not float in water. It will develop a very high shine. It is 3390 on the Janka hardness scale. The handle is  5 inches long . I wanted to make a knife that I could change blades . Makes it easy to sharpen blade too . Just loosen set screw run blade out some to sharpen. I did sharpen the blades but can be worked more for looks . Blades come to me in rough unfinished condition . The blades fit in the handle with a snug fit . Set screw will just secure it from moving in and out . Not much pressure needed to snug set screw . Both brass ends are epoxied and pinned .g10 knife liner material between brass and wood . Comes with the two blades and allen wrench .
