Finally finished most of these up today, so I thought I'd consolidate into one huge post here...
The budget blades (B series) are built from an Antique Sawmill blade, probably L6, probably from the 50's or 60's on the Olympic Peninsula WA. I've been getting some great feedback on these. They get absolutely razor sharp and are very hard (60rc) so the edge retention is excellent.
They're all sheathed in Kydex and built with Micarta grips, peened hard with silver nickle.
The Lanyard Skinners (L series) are built from modern Sawmill bandsaw steel stock. They have very similar characteristics to the antique steel, you can't tell the steel apart, in point of fact.
They're built the same.
All priced individually. The price tags are 1" WIDE, and 1 3/4" LONG, for scale.
The sheaths with the brass rivet/grommets can have the brass blackened, just request it if desired.
Here we go!
