--ETA--
I highly suspect one reason this is still available is the lack of sheath. I have finally sourced a leather one for it but won't have it available for pics for a few days. It will be a black leather pouch style sheath. If you want the sheath it is an additional $10 to cover my costs.

This is one of my Nubilus pattern blades with a full flat double bevel and the plunge moved forward off the handle area. It features Bolivian Rosewood for the handle scales, waxed and polished for protection and beauty.
General Stats:
1/8" 1080
7.5" Overall
7/8" tall
~ 3.25" blade
1/8" thick handle scales of Bolivian Rosewood, finished with a hard wax.
Sole authorship and each of my knives is unique, even within a blade pattern.
$90+shipping (black leather pouch sheath an additional $10
I prefer paypal but accept other payment methods. Shipping domestic by USPS Priority mail w/insurance and tracking will be $8.
This thing is shaving sharp, the full flat grinds come down to a thin edge just slightly thicker toward the tip for extra strength. It's comfy in the hand and while I don't so a lot of sculpting on my 1/8" scales the index finger area is well shaped for comfort and a good hold.
The black area between blade and handle is left as heat treated. It got some buffing while finishing the rest of the knife but is essentially natural. Likewise, my Maker's Mark was put on before final cleanup to give an aged look, matching the rest of the knife.
The blade isn't blue.
That's the nice blue sky we've got today. In one pic you can actually see the reflection of my neighbor's house a bit as well.

I brought it right down to almost a zero edge and then sharpened it on a lansky set to 20 degrees. I'd have gone 17 but with the otherwise thin edge I figured 20 was a better bet and would still be a razor. The point is 25 degrees to help deal with the extra thickness and preserve strength, I didn't want it getting damaged if someone dug the point into a piece of wood or plastic or something and gouged the material or used the knife as a bit of a pry bar. Yeah, that's abuse on a knife like this, but it happens.
