STEEL My standard steel is CPM154. S30V may be substituted at no extra cost. Also available (at extra cost) is Devin Thomas stainless Damascus in a variety of patterns.  HANDLE MATERIALS Any of the following materials are in stock and available at all times: Black linen Micarta Maroon linen Micarta Green Canvas Micarta Antique Ivory Micarta Green/black linen Micarta Red/Black linen Micarta Cocobolo Note: All natural woods are sealed and waxed for stability. However, I cannot guarantee any natural material against cracking or discoloration. Stabilized wood available in several varieties. Will not crack or shrink due to humidity / temperature changes, nor will it turn dark with age and use as natural wood will. Carbon fiber and G-10 are also available. I can also work with other materials not listed here. Let me know what you want! BLADE FINISH Blades are either satin finished or hand rubbed, depending on model. All blades are hollow ground. Satin finish Applied with a Scotch Brite belt on the grinder. An economical and practical finish for a working knife, it wont show scratches easily. Hand rubbed finish Applied by hand with fine grit finishing paper running parallel to the edge. Knives on which a satin finish is standard can be had with a hand rubbed finish at extra cost. Mirror polished or bead blasted bevels are also available.  FILEWORK Vine pattern filework running from butt to point. Available on most models. SPACERS Red or black vulcanized fiber spacers added between the handle material and tang to add a bit of contrast. Available on most fixed blades.  MOSAIC PINS Available on any fixed blade. These are handmade in my shop not commercial items. THONG HOLE Lined with stainless tubing. Available on most fixed blades. BOLSTERS All folders are available with or without bolsters. Standard bolster material for folders is titanium. Damascus and mokume are also available, as are G-10, carbon fiber, and Micarta.  The Sportsman and Seneca models are available in either standard (full, untapered tang and fully contoured handles) or slimline (tapered tang and rounded handles) versions.  SHEATHS AND CLIPS All fixed blades include a handmade leather sheath unless kydex is specified by model. Kydex sheaths are also available on any other fixed blade, if desired. Leather sheaths are sized to fit snugly on a 1 3/8 belt. Please let me know if your requirements are different. Kydex sheaths use the Tek-Lock belt attachment. Several colors of kydex are available, including black, safety orange, and O.D. green. Locking liner folders and framelock folders come standard with a pocket clip. A handmade, open top, friction fit leather belt pouch can be substituted if desired. Left handed? All knives are available with left handed sheaths. All folders can be made in left handed versions. There is no additional charge for this. | Return Home | What's New | Fixed Blades | Folders | Features and Options | Ordering and Contact Information | Available Knives | Wood Spirits by Uncle Jim | Frequently Asked Questions | |
