Description: It is rare to find one of Bob Lay's miniature knives. This perfect copy of his larger hunters is fully functional!
The handle is formed from a solid piece of rare musk ox horn and is nicely offset by turquoise spacer. The stainless steel guard and butt cap create a perfect balance in the hand. The spine has been fileworked for a secure thumb purchase. By mirror polishing the flats of the blade and satin finishing the grinds, Bob creates a knife with grind lines that are very dramatic. Bob recently upgraded his steel of choice from 440C to CPM154. This powdered metallurgical steel has a smaller grain structure allowing the blade to be keener and hold the edge longer. The blade has been tempered to 59-60 Rc for optimal edge retention. Accompanied by certificate from the maker and a cordura storage pouch.
