Saluda's for the Fall Season

[Flat Rock]

Hey Guys, about this time for the last few years I have made a few batches of my Saluda Drop Point Hunter to have in stock for guys who want a great handmade blade for hunting season.
This year is no different! This week I have 3 Saluda ready to go, in 80CRV2 high carbon steel.
I heat treated them to HRC 61 for a wicked sharp edge, and great toughness
These knives go through deer like a laser beam.
The 4" Drop Point blade and ergonomic handle design make for an intuitive tool.

THE MIDDLE WALNUT KNIFE IS SPOKEN FOR!!

I have one Walnut and one Arizona Desert Ironwood ready to go

The come with a Handmade American leather sheath with dangler
Treated with beeswax.

80CRV2 is a terrific High Carbon Steel which can be touched up with a steel or stone in the field, and holds a great edge.
My Walnut is from Old California Trees, and is over 100 years old. and has great depth and warmth.

Thanks for looking!

I'm finishing up 3 Saluda's in 80CRV2 high carbon steel with a full flat grind for improved cutting geometry.
These knives cut like lasers! Natural micarta handle scales and brass pins make for a bulletproof package!

Ya don't see ironwood like that much any longer. Got any more of it?

Wonder what a raindrop and that would look like together? Too "busy"?
