Finished this up a week or so ago, took it to Fikes and we ran it through the basics. Had a scotch brite belt finish on it, but we decided it may have an interesting temperline so we put a rough/quick working polish on the blade.

Its forged 1075 with a SS guard and Koa handle. Wish i could capture the temperline better, but here goes-

that is outstanding work!!! That hamon is perfection. :eek:
 
thanks fellas, i will try and get more pics later. i really need to get off my ass and build a light box. maybe later this evening i can get some better shots when the sun has softened up a bit.
 
I guess if I paid more attention to the title of this thread I would have learned that this knife has a 10" blade. What is the overall length?
 
Good One Matt,I especially like the handle-it Looks Damn Comfortable.How's your Harley & Hot Rod comin' along? :cool:
 
That's beautiful Matt. I've always admired your work. You're one of the people who inspired me to make knives.
 
:eek: If the temper line looks any better in person than in the pictures, then we need to get together and talk sometime!!!! That is a beautiful knife, keep up the great work! :thumbup: :D :thumbup:
 
well thanks again fellas, the temperline does look alot neater in person, there is actually alot more going on than the photos indicate. I will try and get a close up of the left side, which is a bit more active toward the clip.

Buddy, the car project is on hold, my old 65 Chevelle SS got its ass beat during the Hurricane :grumpy:
