    No liners. Handle is the sandblasted micarta in dark green. Blade is O1 steel. It's a nice little knife. I've used it to cut up some carrots and potatoes, but that's it. I've never touched it as far as sharpening goes; never needed to.

    Blade is starting to get a little patina on it, but still looks pretty new. Love my Blind Horse knives, but they deserve to be used and I don't really use this one. I'll get some pictures tomorrow morning.

    How
    about an Emberlit titanium stove with the sleeve?
    I have only used it once to try it out.

    Here are some pics. I put the pic of the sheath up so you could see the texture that was imparted when I wet formed it. I do my wet forming in FoodSaver bags and one side is textured. It's on the back of the sheath, so it doesn't really show. I didn't treat the sheath with anything after forming as it hasn't gotten much use. If you are going to use it out in the weather, I'd recommend SnoSeal or some other type of wax for treatment. I wouldn't oil it, it may (will probably) lose it's formed shape.

    Also, for some reason the edge of the knife looks black in the photos. I assure you that this is a photo anomaly. There's no color on the blade other than the slight patina you can see starting to form in the close up pics. This blade has never been touched with any oil other than mineral oil so it can be used for food prep. Scales are epoxied and pinned. Knife has been stored outside of the sheath.

    This is a stout little knife meant to be used. I'm not sure if you're familiar with BHK's quality, but it is first rate.

    Done deal. I own one other BHK blade, and I love it.. The warranty is amazing, and that is one sweet little blade.

    Mods: trading epsilon hammock chair with reversible butt warmer, dutch speed hook suspension and pillow for that beautiful little pointy from AScott.

    And for transparency ( and to stick with the rules)
    Trading a Purple HyperD hammock chair with purple butt warmer for the Ti emberlit from Dos

    image.jpgHK,
    Got another Multicam?
    Interested in a Tomahawk?
    I have a 'never thrown' 2Hawks Woodsman.
    It is the lighter/shorter version but I also have the longer handle (and a spare) of the Long Hunter Model.

    I Bowhunt mostly but also some Rifle.

    You'll have a PM with my contact info in it arrive shortly, I suspect your getting my last trade on the forums ever, as I'm being urged to become a vendor.

    I had asked one of the mods yesterday what that entails.. and haven't gotten a response back.. so for the moment:

    Trading MidTnJohn my last Multicam Hammock Chair and butt warmer for the Hawk. That's it folks. I'm out of Epsilon.

    Mods, please close the thread
