The Midwest Hunter DIY Knife Kit is designed for practical use in the field, offering a versatile drop point blade ideal for cutting, carving, and skinning tasks. The knife blank features a generous 3.75-inch cutting edge with a satin finish on heat-treated and cryogenically treated 440C stainless steel, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance. The tang includes five through-holes each measuring 0.156 inches (5/32 inch) for handle construction, complete with a stainless steel pinstock for secure assembly. An additional 0.250 inch (1/4 inch) diameter thong hole allows for optional lanyard attachment or custom treatments. The tang holes can be modified to accommodate larger pinstock or threaded fasteners depending on your handle design preferences. Add your choice of handle scales and finish the knife to your standards to create a reliable tool you'll appreciate carrying in the field. The kit comes gift boxed for convenience.
