EDC Clip Point Runt with Koa Handle
The Runt is what I call these little knives. In my opinion they are the perfect size for an every day carry fixed blade knife whether you are going to town or going to the woods . The new trend in the custom knife maker world seems to be to have a steel supplier water jet out a blade blank and then send it to someone else to grind and heat treat. By the time the (maker) receives the blade the only thing remaining to to in order to finish the knife is to add the makers mark and install the pre-shaped handle scales. I personally don’t believe in (making) knives this way. I believe that every step of the process of making the knives I build and sell should be done one hundred percent by me in order to get my makers makers mark. You don’t have to agree with me but I simply believe that if a customer is buying a knife from a custom maker, it should be a knife that is hand forged and hand finished by the maker.
This knife, just like all other knives out of my shop is completely made by me from raw material start to finish. The blades on these little runts are hand forged and hand finished by me and has been hand forged from high carbon 80CRV2 steel. This particular knife has a clip point blade and Hawaiian Koa handle scales. The blade is 2-3/4” long while the overall length is 5-5/8”. This knife also comes with a hand tooled and hand sewn full grain leather sheath with an ambidextrous design that will allow you to carry it virtually any way you would want.
