Tactical Tucan.

Made this one for myself.

I love that blade shape.

This is also a test for a new industrial coating.

Couple details:

5mm nc6 steel, banite heat treatment by Tlim, g-10, coat.
Dimentions: blade 13 cm, overall 24cm.

Need to be sharpen both sides and a kydex sheath.

Some photos:

The shape of the whole knife is great but the coating looks a little bit like wall paint....

I like that very much. Great design, great colours!
The shape of the choil is one of the highlights.

Maybe I need to learn to take good pictures, because it doesn't look so bad live.

What you needn't learn is how to design knives!

I'm looking foreward seeing better pictures

What is the coating for ?

 

[wojtas13]

Knife is made of high carbon steel, coating protects it from corrosion.

 

[thickneck]

OK !

Did u sharpen both sides ? Why ?

 

[wojtas13]

It is not sharpen yet, but will be sharp both sides.

Why? I think its obvious.
