WTB: Queen Mountain Man or similar

coffeecup · Post by **coffeecup** » Mon May 09, 2011 6:23 am

I'm looking for a particular type of knife, not a particular model: the Schrade 6ot I've been pocket-carrying is too darn bulky. The Queen Mountain Man would work fine after some blade work, but there have to be others out there that might work too!

For other knives, the characteristics I'm looking for are:
-thong hole or bail for lanyard
-overall (closed) length of 4.25"-4.5"
-single blade
-blade steel can be almost anything except generic stainless (typically 420)
-while I have a preference for natural handle materials, delrin etc would be fine--I want this for a work knife

Suggestions and offers would be greatly appreciated.
Jim

The #72 pattern Great Eastern would meet the bill,except,they are only 3 3/4 inch's long

The #23 pattern, is 4 1/2 inches,but no lanyard hole

and it would be ""bulky"" also???
Both have 1095 carbon steel,and are very well made USA knives

the Schatt & Morgan,made by Queen,has 420C steel,I beleive???? and the Queen Mountain Man,has D2 steel???good luck,Monk
