1095 Recurve Camper with Black Ash Burl

[Bailey Knives]

This is a 1095 camper model. I have made several of these and this seems to be one of my more popular styles.

The blade is 1095, clay coated quench with a nice hamon. The spine has a full file pattern.

Dimensions are as follows:
Blade - 6 1/4" tip to handle
OAL - 11"

The handle is stabilized black ash burl, stabilized by WSSI. It is held securely in place with brass pins (one mosaic) and a lanyard tube.

The sheath is 8 oz leather, treated with beeswax for stiffness and weatherproofing.

Price - $180 shippedSOLD. Paypal preferred to mlwbailey@yahoo.com
