Hello everybody!

I'd like to show you my latest completed project, a 10" fighter.

Made from 80CrV2, blackened stainless steel guard and dyed curly maple handle. The sheath is made from veg tanned leather.
All comments/feedback/critique is welcome!

Thank you for looking!

Very nice indeed! Looks like it would cause some serious damage as a fighting knife! thanks for sharing some fine craftsmanship.
 
Thank you guys for your kind words, I really appreciate it!
 
Can you please send me a message, I would like to order one of your knives.

You need a $10 paid membership to exchange pm's, be careful of leaving your email address as scammers might email you posing as Tony to "take" your order.

If I'm not mistaken you've reached me through email, if not, my email can be found on my signature.
 
I really like this (it's one of the best I've seen in a long time, in fact) but just out of curiosity why do you call it a fighter and not a bowie?

Thank you very much for your kind words!

When it comes to classifying whether it's a fighter or bowie, it's a bit of personal choice for everybody.
In my mind, a bowie could be with or without a sharpened clip. Half, full or no guard at all.
A fighter could be in the style of a bowie but focusing more towards being balanced and feeling fast while handling.
