Heres one that fell victim to the recession, New owner lost his job and decided on something smaller, Its 1095 full tang with turks heads on the top and bottom. It is alittle different tho, I decided to try and make a cord wrap the would fit the hand wider so I left it at 3/8 at the butt and it slowly tapers to the top. The butt could be used for hammering nails, alot of room there to put to work, but as you can see in the picture I drilled holes out of the handle to lessen the weight of the knife and its balance point is exactly in the middle of the top turks head.The weight will really surprise you when you hold it, it not to heavy at all. Full lenght is 11 3/8, blade is 6 1/4, handle is right at 5 inches from the top of the turks head to the butt of the knife. Widest point of the blade is 1 7/8, Wonderful hamon, top of the blade is left forged to spark fire steel. Price is SOLD shipped with a soft case, someone will get a lot of knife in this one, No Joke! Clip is also sharp but not razor sharp

Nice looking blade Charlie. I might add that someone could always opt to put scales on this knife at some point... Cheers, Dan
