- Knife: Another fine handmade collaborative
knife by James Beauchamp and Jay Fisher! This is a very strong and
durable tactical grade knife. The blade has a very strong aggressive
point. The blade is low care, highly corrosion resistant 440C high chromium
martensitic tool steel. The blade has a half-length top swage
to reduce point resistance while still maintaining superior spine
strength. The blade has a fully tapered tang. Notice that the bolsters bed with a pair of pinned and
dovetailed canvas micarta phenolic handle scales. This very tough,
hard, and durable material is industrially manufactured for high
compression resistance, toughness, and chemical resistance. The
bolsters are tough 304 high chromium, high nickel austenitic
stainless steel for the greatest longevity and zero care. 304 is the
same steel used in 18-8 stainless steel bolts, nuts, and industrial
fasteners.
- Sheath: The sheath for this knife is one of
James Beauchamp and Jay Fisher's
positively locking military tactical combat models, made of double
thickness kydex, 5052H32 corrosion resistant high strength aluminum,
304, 302, and 316 stainless steel locking mechanism and components,
bound with nickel plated steel Chicago screws and 18-8 stainless
machine screws. The belt loops are reversible for a variety of wear
positions.

Thanks, S.W.!
Hi Jay,
The knife arrived today and I am immensely pleased with results. The photos
really don't do it justice.
The finish is exactly what I was looking for and the balance is great. The sheath locking device works
brilliantly; all in all a great piece of work.
I am already looking forward to the next knife, which will be a little more
adventurous in terms of style and finish.
Outstanding Work
Kind Regards,
--S.
