Tumbled S30V

[Pmlknives]

I really like this one but I think it's time to let it go. CPM S30V 5/32", 6.5" overall and a2.5" cutting edge. Thumb checkering on top with Black micarta with stainless pins and a exposed lanyard hole. Tumbled on all the edges so no shinny bits. Kydex sheath with a molded belt loop. I wasn't sure about the marking of the steel so I electrochemical etched it one the bevels then had TUS laser etch it on the spine. So because of 'factory' error I'll be offering this at a discounted price of $150.00 delivered to the lower US.





thanks for looking

Do you prefer an over 60 rockwell on S30V or lower?

That looks good! I like the darker finished tumbling, first time I have seen it.

IS this achieved through the normal stonewashed process or another method?

I shoot for under 60. In a small knife like this I'm sure over 60 would be fine, but I like toughness.

I bead blast the knife then tumble for 30-60 minutes in a vibratory tumbler. If you put some mothers it would probably make it even darker.

Very sweet. Got a pic of the reverse side of the kydex with the molded belt loop?

So it's pretty simple, it'll fit 1.5" belts. It's flat on one side so it fits tight to the sheath, I'll try and take a picture later if you'd like..
