El Chupacabra - Style 3241
With a brushed satin finish, the handle is made from 3/16ths solid, one piece titanium slabs. The 4 1/2
inch blade is 3/16ths thick and made from BG-42 stainless tool steel which
Rockwelled at 61.
The blade pivots on a half inch hardened stainless axle and is stopped by a
quarter inch hardened stainless stop bar.
El Chupacabra - Style 3241
Named after a vampire of Mexican folklore El Chupacabra (the goat sucker) is the stoutest folder I've ever built. This one has a longer blade with a 4" cutting edge by the customer's special order. The usual 3/16ths BG-42 was used as well as the half inch hardened stainless pivot. The handle slabs are 3/16ths solid titanium and were sandblasted for texture. A huge folder, this Chupie measures 10 1/2 inches in length when opened and weighs a hefty 14 ozs.
As you can see, this knife is far too heavy for a pocket clip so a hand stitched leather sheath is provided.
El Chupacabra - Style 3241
Here's another Chupie with 3/16ths titanium handle slabs but this time the handle
has been sand blasted for a rough texture. A massive knife built for a working
man the Chupacabra has an over all length of about 10 1/2 inches!
Once again we have a BG-42 blade which Rockwell's at 61 and pivots on a half
inch hardened stainless axle.
El Chupacabra - Style 3241
This Chupie was built for a hard working man who has a taste for the finer
things in life. The 3/16ths inch titanium handle slabs feature baby blue
anodizing. A satin finish sets off the BG-42 blade which, like all Chupies,
pivots on a half inch stainless hardened pivot.
Since a Style 3241 Chupie, at 12 ounces in weight, is much too large for pocket carry,
a belt sheath is provided.
