Currently I am selling my Tinker Pit Fighter. It was his prototype and is labeled PF-01. The blade is 5160 spring steel, lightly acid-etched and blued. It is in perfect condition except for some minor wear on the bluing. The blade is cannel ground with a gently convex section from the spine to the edge. The back is fully sharpened and when thrusting the semi-sharp tanto section of the leading edge forces a powerful shearing action with the back-edge. The convex true-edge features large, shallow serrations. The hilt is Cocobolo wood and the scales are secured by Allen-head screws, passed through the tang into a recessed nut embedded in the material on the opposite side. The scales can be removed for cleaning or replacement.
And yes, I got a lot of this info from Tinker's old page since he knows his work better than I do. The leather scabbard is included and is made of fitted heavy leather.
The blade measures 5 1/2" with a total length of 10 3/4" It is a great all around blade with a very interesting, useful design for a multitude of purposes whether for personal self defense or more utilitarian reasons.
