Townsend Knife Co. Mini MC 2.5" Fixed Blade – K390 64.5 HRC, Grey Micarta, Piece #3 of 3 – Made in USA

Townsend Knife Co. Mini MC. K390. Grey Micarta. 64.5 HRC. Piece #3 of 3.

Nobody knows what MC stands for. Our best guess is Mega Capable, because a 2.5" K390 fixed blade at 64.5 HRC in a leather-sheathed 5.75" package doesn't leave much room for argument. K390 at 64.5 HRC is on the harder end of what production knife makers work with, and well beyond what most custom makers attempt. That hardness comes with edge retention that outlasts the cutting tasks you throw at it and a sharpening session that requires patience and the right stones. Grey Micarta scales. Leather sheath. This is piece #3 of 3. Three were made. This is the last one. Handmade by Townsend Knife Co. Made in the USA.

Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply: The Mini MC at 64.5 HRC in K390 is the number that stops people when they read it. That hardness is not a spec you see often on a handmade knife, and it means the edge holds in a way that changes how you think about sharpening intervals. Three were made. This is #3 of 3. Whatever MC stands for, it earned the name.
