Description: Bob Lay's designs are well thought through and show an amazing degree of craftsmanship. Warm tones in Acrylester spacer nicely set off the jet black buffalo horn and are reflected in the polished brass fittings. By mirror polishing the flats of the blade and satin finishing the grinds, Bob creates a knife with grind lines that are very dramatic. The blade has been tempered to 57 Rc for optimal edge retention. Filework on the spine assures a secure thumb purchase.
It is particularly rare to find a knife by Bob that uses brass for the fittings, and the results when combined with Amber Acrylester is spectacular! Accompanied by certificate from the maker and a cordura storage pouch.
