Was browsing the Pathfinder web site, and saw the knife blanks the had for sale $29 bucks I think. I did not order the scales they offer because I had some Buckeye Blur scales I wanted to use. The blade is 1095 carbon already hardened and ground to a rough edge. I think it turned out pretty good. The sheath fit like a glove which I am happy about because the knife was stropped to a razors edge.
That turned out great also, I think that is one of the other blanks. That one is the next one I am going to do could not decide between the two of them.
