Vintage Micarta. 3.5\" blade. 62 HRC.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BigT is Townsend's full-size fixed blade, built around 52100 high-carbon steel at 62 HRC with vintage micarta handle scales. 52100 is a bearing steel that the custom knife community has adopted for its exceptional toughness and ability to take and hold a fine, keen edge. At 62 HRC it sits in the performance range where edge retention and toughness balance well, without crossing into the brittleness territory that higher hardness can bring. The vintage micarta scales carry the character that only old-stock material has: a patina and color depth that modern production micarta doesn't replicate. 3.5\" blade, 7.25\" overall. Leather sheath. Handmade by Townsend Knife Co.

Every knife is CNC machined and then hand finished by the maker. The leather sheaths are handmade. The steels, handle materials, and configurations are chosen with intention, and the piece counts reflect that: most Townsend models are made in very small numbers and don't repeat in the same configuration twice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Townsend Knife Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44251507327156,"sku":"TKC-BIGT-VINTAGEMICARTA","price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0635\/4049\/4516\/files\/IMG_6741.jpg?v=1781807951","url":"https:\/\/lonestarknife.com\/products\/townsend-bigt-52100-vintage-micarta-leather-sheath","provider":"Lone Star Knife \u0026 Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
