Description: Bob Lay's designs are well thought through and show an amazing degree of craftsmanship. Dyed and stabilized box elder burl is offset by a black buffalo horn spacer. Alternating black fiber and stainless spacers assist the handle to adjust to temperature and humidity changes. The stainless steel guard and butt cap create a perfect balance in the hand.
By mirror polishing the flats of the blade and satin finishing the grinds, Bob creates a knife with grind lines that are very dramatic. The spine is hand fileworked for a secure thumb purchase. The 440C stainless steel blade is tempered to 57Rc for optimal edge retention. Accompanied by certificate from the maker, leather sheath, and a cordura storage pouch.
