I made these two this weekend. Gallery
Drop point hunter is in RWL34 - 4mm - about 59HRC, brass guard, pins and tube and India water buffalo horn scales. Flat grind with secondary edge.
Buscrafter is made from 5,5mm thick Latrobe 14-4CrMo in 57HRC (god knows why it gave such hardness - 1055C, quench in oil and temper it 2hrs on 180C.
It scratches glass with the edge???! maybe the measurment is not precise??? ) , Amboyna scales and brass corby pins and tube. Flat grind with convexed edge.
