My best summer vacation was with my grandfather in the deep South when I was 12. We spent the months working on the huge farm, eating watermelon from the patch and shooting cans down in the Gulley.
One time my cousin decided to ride a bull and his brother hit its rump with a switch. We chased that bull across a bean field with my cousin on his back. The bull headed for the pond, bucked and turned. My cousin was pitched about 15 feet into that pond with plenty of hang time.

Lots of good knives have been made using 1095 steel.  SOO True, the price to performance ratio should be unreal too! The DSF with Res-C handles should be VERY affordable MM

Dan, What do you envision the remainder of the year to be like for SYKCO? Any new designs or projects in the works that you might be able to give us a sneak peak into?  I actually finished a new design yesterday and I will be making it out of 1095 that I found in the warehouse...tHis should be fun VERY cool! With using a different steel, like 1095, do you use a different heat treat protocol or do you still aim for that 58-60 RC sweetspot? 58-60 Rc provides the best edge. The heat treatment provides amazing results where others are unable to achieve. BY the way the protocol involves unstated amounts of pixy dust and those pixy aren't talking

I'll have to capture Tinker Bell later and do some enhanced interrogation techniques on her.

I must say that having been teased with a 5160 offering, the only thing that could have licked those wounds properly is a good ole' chunk of 1095 at a great price!
