Description: Thinning out the knife collection: Rare custom fixed blade by custom knife maker Justin King (J.King) out of Arizona, USA. These don’t come up for sale often. He was a popular custom maker on Bladeforums whose blade style leaned towards tactical, technical/utility functions. I believe this one to be circa mid 2010s. There is a small blemish on the g-10 handle came to me this way (please see pics). Other than that, this is an excellent knife ready for its new owner. Original description from the maker on Bladeforums: My latest design, 9-1/4" overall with a 4.5 " blade. This is very similar to my Practical Field model, with a more traditional handle design. Made from .170" cpm3v tool steel with a flat grind and tapered tang, and features my new stonewashed finish, which is smoother and more rust resistant than the bead blasted finish I have been offering in the past. The blade is hand sanded to 400 grit, tumbled with ceramic media, etched in ferric to darken, then neutralized and tumbled again for a random finish that is textureless, non-reflective and absorbs minor scuffs and scratches more gracefully than most other finishes. Specs: 9-1/4" overall, 4-1/2" blade, .170" thick cpm3v tool steel by Crucible, heat treated by Peter's to 59-60 HRC Tapered tang, flat grind, rounded back, thumb jimping Black/forest green G10 scales with forest green spacers/liners Assembled with West Systems G/Flex epoxy and flared stainless tubing .080" black Kydex sheath with my QD carry clip which works for multiple carry options including belt, no belt, IWB and boot Sheath will accept Tek Lok/Molle Loks
