1095 Convex w/Hamon and Bone

[Bailey Knives]

This one kind of has a ghost hamon. It is 1095, and was clay quenched, but I have been experimenting with different applications of the clay to get more of a wispy effect on the blade. This one sure has it. The spine is also fileworked with a random vine pattern

The handle is bone. It is held in place with 3 regular pins and 1 mosaic, along with acraglas.

The sheath is 7-8oz hand stitched and tooled leather. Still trying to perfect that tri-weave stamp. This one is better.

Dimensions -
Blade - 5 1/4" tip to handle
OAL - 10"

Price - $SOLD shipped to US. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.

The first to post here "I'll take it!" gets it.
