the Sapeur [Sapper] and a few other blades
i had an order for a pair of C4/Shark hybrids with pry butts so this is what i cooked up.the guy decided to call this the Sapeur, which is
the French designation for sapper soldiers (similar to the US combat
engineering divisions).
steel is 6mm thick Bohler N690 hardened to 59/60
finish is black KG Guncote [applying the KG was like a comedy of errors.and i had 6 blades to do]
oal is 12.125, blade length is 6.5 in
handle is green/black G10,with heat coloured ss fasteners.
top 2 blades are Bounty Hunters done in 4mm thick Sandvik 12C27 for kitchen duty.scales are silver twill G10 and Carbon fibre.
bottom knife is a Bounty Hunter with a contoured handle of black micarta and red fibre liners
i did another C4 as well [bottom]
