Yes mate. It is High Carbon tool steel. The same steel the woodlore knife is made from.

The grind is a scandi grind and even along the length.

Cheers mucka....just hoping my good lady spots this thread as I'm strapped for 3 weeks unless I can make more than beer tokens from my Holly forage lol. Good luck with Yor sale .

There are some fantastic knife makers on here and Mark is one of them . . . Well done on this beautiful knife fella.

Hope ya get it Chiseller.

Aye the price is steep especially for a knife thats just 01 steel and a bit of oak, pretty ridiculous really.

You're welcome Mark. My posting was in response to this thread http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=83028

I suppose I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to corporations wth their endorsed/sanctioned products being charged at extortionate prices. Mr Mears, and/or his entourage is making some big bucks out of the little people. That sorta sticks in my craw. The knife may be the dog's danglies, I'm not knocking that, but do take issue with that price tag.

Very nice as usual mate, has a bit of Deval bushcraft knife look about it,was that the intention?

Thanks Mary

Silverback - No mate, no intention of it being like JD's knife. Believe it or not, the blade shape was taken from another knife i do, and the handle is from another of my designs. The only thing i have done different is to put the dip in the top of the handle, plus the blade is angled downwards a bit. I play about with my designs, mixing and matching and seeing how they look. This was just a result of one such experiment. I'm pretty sure that if you put this besides a Deval Bushy the differences would be quite apparent.

One beautiful knife, and like you say, completely different from mine.

 

[HillBill]

Cheers JD.

A couple of folk have said there are similarities to yours tbh, Its good to see your not one of them

Yeah, I noticed it over on BCL too. Like I said, it is very different, and a great looking knife in its own right.
