STEEL
ALL OF MY KNIVES ARE OFFERED in 154CM, Elmax, S30V OR 440C STAINLESS STEEL I BUY STEEL IN LARGE QUANTITIES TO GET THE MOST CONSISTENT RESULTS. Rc IS CHECKED WITH DIFFERENT LOTS AND TO INSURE THERMOCOUPLE ACCURACY. ALL HEAT TREATING IS DONE BY ME USING 3 TEMPER CYCLES AND 2 CRYO CYCLES. I BELIEVE TRIPLE DRAWING MY BLADES OPTIMIZES THE PERFORMANCE POTENTIAL. I'vE HAD SOME INDEPENDENT CUTTING TESTS PERFORMED ANDMY KNIVES COMPETE VERY FAVORABLY WITH INDUSTRY EXPECTATIONS OF THESE STEELS. ALL OF MY KNIVES ARE HOLLOW GROUND USING BIG WHEELS TO ACHIEVE MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE..
LEATHER/SHEATHS
I HAND STITCH MY OWNS SHEATHS. I TYPICALLY USE VERY HEAVY WEIGHT LEATHER WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MY EDC, CAPER AND BOOT KNIVES. ON THOSE I USE A LIGHTER WEIGHT LEATHER TO MAKE THE OVERALL PACKAGE MORE COMPACT. MY SHEATHS SHOULD LAST MANY LIFETIMES AND I FEEL ARE VERY WELL MADE. I INCLUDE ONE OF MY SHEATHS IN THE PRICE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MY KITCHEN KNIVES. IF YOU PREFER, I CAN ALSO PROVIDE A LARRY PARSONS SHEATH INSTEAD OF MINE. LARRY IS IN MY OPINION ONE OF THE BEST SHEATH MAKERS IN THE WORLD. LARRY USES THE BEST QUALITY HIDES AND HIS CRAFTSMANSHIP AND OVERALL QUALITY ARE SECOND TO NONE. I PASS HIS PRICE DIRECTLY TO THE KNIFE BUYER.
