Another Estes Knife

Post by Ringmaster »

This is the "user" Tim made for me. The handles are a wee bit scuffed up, but it's cleaned at least a truckload of whitetails.

1/8" mirror-finish ATS 34, tapered tang
4 1/4" blade, 8 3/4" overall
Bird's Eye maple, brass guard and screw fasteners

She looks like one very hard working girl ... ::drool:: ::drool::

Will that edge hold up to Sunburst's Hogs ?

Thanks, guys

I've never met Sunburst's hogs, so I really can't say ! But it would clean two deer, before needing a touch-up on the edge.
