Description: Bob Lay's designs are well thought through and show an amazing degree of craftsmanship. Dark toned cocobolo wood is nicely offset by blonde sheep horn. Alternating black fiber and stainless spacers assist the handle to adjust to temperature and humidity changes. The stainless steel guard and butt cap create a perfect balance in the hand. 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 is formed from 19C27. This high performance stainless steel has a smaller grain structure allowing the blade to be keener and hold the edge longer. The blade has been tempered to 58.5Rc for optimal edge retention and durability. Accompanied by certificate from the maker and a cordura storage pouch.
