Mad Dog'stm custom 12" ultimate fighter
Named for the big north woods, this is a piece crafted from 1/4" X 2" stock,
with a positive included edge angle, 50% false edge, and 50% file work, and a Glowing Temper Line.
The grip is slightly oversized.
This huge Mad Dogtm fighter is a serious cutter. My new personal favorite. Stopping anything in its path.
The blade steel is Starrett 496-01 high carbon tool steel. Selectively tempered, the A.T.A.K.tm has a Rockwell C-scale hardness of 62 at the edge (as hard as a file), and HRC 50-54 throughout the spine and hidden full tang. This provides superior edge-holding ability with exceptional durability for prying and chopping. Each blade is hard chromed providing excellent corrosion inhibition. The ergonomic grip indexes the blade in the user's hand, thus letting the user know how the blade is presented, even in the dark. Mad Dog Knivestm uses a glass/epoxy composite grip material that is compression bonded to the hidden full tang. With a compressive yield strength of 79,000 psi, the grip can withstand tremendous punishment with no damage. The composite grip material provides 1,000 volts per mil dielectric strength - electrically isolating the user from the blade. Our grip material is also impervious to virtually all chemicals and solvents.
