Hello everybody!
This blade begun its life as a completely diffent project, it was supposed to be a Bill Bagwell hell's belle style takedown fighter. However, even though everything was going according to plan, after the heat treatment something felt off. Due to its length, the blade curved downwards (by-product of quenching in oil) and completely changed its style (visible in the last picture compared to the sketch).
Now, it looks more like a broken back seax than a Bagwell fighter, that's why I decided to restart the fighter and finish this one as a seax style.
Steel: U10A
Handle: Texured mild steel guard, black leather spacers and mango handle.
Dimensions:
Overall length: 44.7 cm -17.59''
Blade length: 29.5 cm - 11.61''
Blade width: 3.8 cm - 1.49''
Blade thickness: 6 mm - 0.236''
Handle length: 13.5 cm - 5.31''
Flat grind with a convex edge. My pictures are quite awful, the video in HD is a better representation.
I would not suggest cutting down trees with the knife due to its geometry.
It comes with a brown leather sheath. The sheath is not ready yet, you can choose for either left or right side carry.
Price: sold
