Description: Back in 1997 Steve Skiff made a hatchet for his son in his metal fabrication shop. This led to making a few hunting knives for family and friends. Before he knew it, Skiff was attending knife shows and attempting to learn everything he could about the craft of making knives. These days Steve is known for making high end folding knives with a high attention to detail and an incredible fit and finish rarely seen elsewhere. He is a voting member of the American Knifemakers Guild and belongs to the Northeast Cutlery Collectors Association (NCCA).
This custom Bandit #32 from Skiff shows his incredible machining skills and broad understanding of good design. The blade is made from CPM-154 stainless steel with a hand rubbed satin finish. CPM-154 is an American-made powdered metallurgical steel developed by Crucible. It ensures a keen, long lasting edge. The blade rotates open on caged ceramic bearings and has incredibly smooth action!
The handle is constructed from titanium that is machined and differentially anodized. Corners are perfectly rounded for a comfortable grip. A White Timascus pivot ring adds extra flash into this design. White Timascus is made from alternating layers of titanium that have been heat colored. The scales surround a matching White Timascus backbar that has been machined to provide a positive grip when pulling the knife from the pocket. Screw hardware throughout has been anodized blue. The knife is finished with a 3D machined White Timascus pocket clip that is mounted for right-handed, tip-up carry.
Exceptional work throughout!
