Description: Mastersmith P.J. Tomes doesn't make as many knives has he used to, so I was extremely pleased when he let us know he had just completed a new batch.
Styled after the knives of William Scagel (one of the best known makers of the early 20th century), this classic swayback hunter has everything that you would expect from ABS Mastersmith P.J. Tomes. The fit throughout is excellent, from the soldered guard to the spacers and handle material.
Tomes created this hunting knife as a hard working tool! The blade was forged to shape from 52100 carbon steel. 52100 has long been among my favorite carbon steels due to its spectacular edge retention. The blade is distal tapered for a perfect balance.
The stacked handle features leather and fiber spacers. It is finished with a stag crown for a sure hand-hold. The handle, like the blade shape, is very influenced by Scagel's knives.
The knife is accompanied by a hand stitched leather sheath.
Excellent fit and finish throughout.
