Caden_Vekk Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) I designed this knife one day back in June. My roommate challenged me to just go and design a knife and 10 minutes later, I had this drawn out and was grinding it out of a bit of wood. This knife isn't bad ass, it isn't tactical, or anything...it's just a knife. It's meant to cut and that's it. That's why I've decided to name this knife (what I think is) the proper phonetic way of pronouncing "knife". It's called the K'Nifi. OAL 165mm Cutting edge 67mm Weight: (get ready) 0.33lbs 5160 I just recently finished the bare steel one in 5160 in September and have been carrying it quite a bit. This past week I found some 1/8th inch copper I had been given a few years back and decided to make and upgraded version Here is the Copper Clad K'Nifi OAL 165mm Cutting edge 67mm Weight: (get ready) 0.55lbs 5160, Copper plate, and brass pins And, as I'm sure you're all aware, there's always a small sacrifice that is due to the Blade Gods...and I got a bit of a papercut from the belts...

Emiliano Carrillo Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I love that copper handled K'nifi! The sacrifice to the belt gods obviously went over well and allowed you to produce a beautiful little user Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Longmire Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Half a pound? That could double as a throwing weapon, wouldn't matter which end hit, it'd put the hurt on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua States Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 (edited) Half a pound? That could double as a throwing weapon, wouldn't matter which end hit, it'd put the hurt on. Or a small finishing hammer.........kinda cute though. Good for dressing small to medium size game.

Kevin Colwell Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 works for me. the copper is a nice touch. I love copper. please visit my website http://www.professorsforge.com/ “Years ago I recognized my kinship with all living things, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on the earth. I said then and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it; while there is a criminal element, I am of it; while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.” E. V.

GEzell Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 This reminds me of the infamous 'mouse skinner', the design is quite close.... Copper is beautiful, but heavy!
