Small Hunting Knife – 12C27

Description

Small Hunting Knife – 12C27

I made this Hunting Knife knife using 12C27 stainless steel that has been heat treated to 59 Rockwell by RJ Heat Treatment in Sydney.

Sandvik 12C27 is Sandvik’s most well-rounded knife steel with excellent edge performance allowing razor sharpness, high hardness, exceptional toughness and good corrosion resistance.  With a hardness range of 54-61 HRC, high toughness, scary sharpness and good corrosion resistance, Sandvik 12C27 is the recommended grade for hunting knives, pocket knives, camping knives, high-end chef’s knives and tactical knives.

This particular knife has a scandi convex grind with a heat treat finish.

The handle scales are Buff Ritchlite with Green Micarta Zombie Green G10 Spacer and Liners.  The pins are G10.  Because of the blades stainless properties this knife will stand up to a lot of poor treatment in the elements (it won’t rust as easy as others).

The sheath is hand made from Buffalo Hide.
