Great knife and great video :thumbup:

Not sure I've come across laminated micarta before and seeing as how that's the first time you've used it, you did a smashing job.

Is that gun black you used on the blade? Will that come off with use?

hey george,
yes thats gun black that i used. easy, fast and rust protective. and depending on the way of use, its gonna come off.
cutting, meat, ropes or skinning a dear is not a big problem. but working through bones or other hard stuff gonna take this kind of finish away.

have all a nice day.
